Talk:Knapton Hill

Knapton Hill is located in Smith's Parish. The former "Knapton Estate" was large, stretching from just above Spittal Pond Nature Reserve (there are seasonal flamingos) north to just about Harrington Sound school and east to Devils Hole or thereabouts. After the breakup of the estate, Knapton Hill, and Knapton Hill Road retain the name. Knapton Hill is one of the highest and steepest (in parts) hills in Bermuda.

Knapton Hill as a residential area

 * Knapton Hill is also a residential area, described by Bermuda Online as, "A prime residential area of Bermuda, one of the top three such areas. It is named after John Knapton, a very successful mid 17th century merchant". John Knapton described himself as a goldsmith in the records of the Bermuda Company where he was Treasurer, but he is also known today as a silversmith.
