Lord Hill's Column was built in honour of Lord Hill (1772-1842), an aristocrat and army officer. The monument used to stand in the centre of a road junction. The monument hasn't moved, it is the roads which have been remodelled to pass to the side of the monument. The A458 and A5064 meet at this junction.
