Wilford Hill

Wilford Hill is the highest point in West Bridgford, giving views of the Trent Valley as far as Newark-on-Trent.

Wilford Hill and Sharphill Wood were listed in 1066[2] as having belonged to Gytha, wife of Earl Ralph (Ralph the Timid), later transferred to the ownership of William Peverel a favourite knight of William the Conqueror, first sheriff of Nottingham, and lord of Nottingham Castle.

Constructed on "closes of land lying and being on the North West side of Loughborough Road in the Parish of Wilford in the County of Nottingham".

It was mainly farmland until the early 1950s when local builders Frank Goulding Limited started building on the land.

Wilford Hill borders the Compton Acres development as well as the older areas of West Bridgford.
