White Hill, Monmouth : ウィキペディア英語版 | White Hill, Monmouth
The White Hill is a hill rising which lies to the west of the town of Monmouth, South Wales and north of Wonastow. It is also a forested area, known as Whitehill Wood. ==History==
At the start of the 20th Century the White Hill had an abundance of blackthorn and cherry trees. In the spring the hedgerows and trees would blossom so the hill would be covered in a mass of white - hence the White Hill. During the 20th century the Forestry Commission took over management of the woods and gradually blossoming trees and hedgerows have been replaced with faster growing evergreen trees.〔Kingsley Ward〕
