Rivey Hill is a hill overlooking Linton in Cambridgeshire, England .[1] At 367feet it is the highest point for several miles around. The hill has a steep slope leading down to Linton and a prominence of 69feet. The highest point is on private land but a bridleway from Linton crosses near the top. A water tower on the hill identifies it when seen from a distance.[2] The tower is a grade II listed building, was built in 1935–1936 in Art Deco style, and underwent major restoration work in 2018–2019.[3]
The ascent of the hill is the start of a circular walk, detailed in Jarrold's Walks in Cambridgeshire, which goes north from the top to a Roman Road, follows this over the 312feet Hildersham Hill for 2miles, then descends to Hildersham and returns along the valley of the River Granta to Linton. Rivey Hill is also the highest point on a circular walk around Hadstock and Linton, described by The Hundred Parishes Society.[4]
