Summary
[edit]
| Description |
English: The Billing. This distinctive round little hill with its silly tuft of trees is visible for miles around. The OS calls it Billing Hill. According to 'A Topographical Dictionary of Yorkshire' by Thomas Langdale (1822): 'On the lofty ridge of Billinge, near here, says Dr. Whitaker, "was found, about the year 1780, a valuable remain of British antiquity. This was a torques of pure and flexible gold, perfectly plain, and consisting of two rods, not quite cylindrical, but growing thicker towards the extremities, and twisted together. Its intrinsic value was £18. sterling."' |
