Robin Hood Hills, Nottinghamshire

Robin Hood Hills

Robin Hood Hills[1][2][3] or Robin Hood's Hills[4] are a steep sided range of sandstone hills forming a natural amphitheatre surrounding the villages of Annesley and Newstead in Nottinghamshire, England.[1] Robin Hood's Cave lies at the bottom of the hills. They rise to a height of 195 metres above sea level at Coxmoor, Kirkby-in-Ashfield. A railway tunnel passes underneath the hills on the Robin Hood Line railway between Newstead railway station and Kirkby-in-Ashfield railway station.

The highest point of the hills reaches 195 m (640 ft).[2]
