May Hill is a prominent English hill between Gloucester and Ross-on-Wye. Its summit, on the western edge of Gloucestershire and its northern slopes in Herefordshire, is distinguishable by a clump of trees on its summit, which forms an official Site of Special Scientific Interest.[1] It is reached by three public footpaths, two as parts of the Gloucestershire Way and Wysis Way.[2]
