Argues that English hill towns should be recognised as a type of settlement, like the hill top settlements of southern Europe. Unlike southern Europe, English hill towns tended to be built on hill slopes not the hill top. Argues such a distinctive English settlement should be recognised as a phenomenon in its own right, concentrating on the appearance of such hill towns in the landscape and based on the analysis of some 20 English hill towns. Identifies the distinguishing features and characteristics.
