Pollards Hill occupies the highest point in Norbury and on a clear day the view stretches to Windsor Castle. It was originally part of the Great North Wood and the name 'Pollard' derives from this connection. The road layout of Pollards Hill was shown on maps of 1868 with two avenues of trees. The attractive houses are more recent. This is Pollards Hill West where it bends round by a triangular green to meet Pollards Hill South.
