Google maps is NOT showing the right location. Its near Box Bush on the right past Huntley and NOT in Newent. Absolutely breathtaking views and great for walks. Horse riding countryside and there are many ponies kept on the hill here. You can see for 100s of miles. Its the highest point around.

This is where George Whitfield started his ministry. He preached at Gloucester City Park to over 15,000 people. Also, Robert Raikes birthed the Sunday school movement from here. The pub opposite was where he was born and is named after him. Gloucester has a wonderful Christian heritage and there are many vibrant, lively and charismatic congregations in the city. Modern day Wesleyians preach in the streets and many miraculous healings have taken place as reported by the Citizen newspaper.
