Gallions Hill is a sixty feet high landmark created from "recycled excavated material". A spiral path leads to the summit which provides widespread views up and down the Thames. To the south the views are only as far as the ridge between Shooters Hill, Plumstead Common, Bostall Heath and Lesnes Abbey Woods. This view from the summit looks down Hill View Drive. The Belvedere Refuse Incinerator can be seen on the horizon, left of centre - see http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/2356994
