Mons Hill

Mons Hill

Mons Hill is a hill situated in the West Midlands of England.

It is a wooded hill which straddles the border of Dudley and Sedgley, standing to the north of the much more famous Wren's Nest hill.

It was originally situated within the borders of Sedgley, but to allow the development of nearby land as the Priory Estate in 1926 the borders were altered and the hill has since been within the boundaries of Dudley.

From 1965 until 1990, Mons Hill gave its name to a neighbouring secondary school which is now part of Dudley College.
