Snowshill Hill is situated in the Cotswolds, a region of South West and South East England that extends into several counties, including Worcestershire. The area is defined by Jurassic limestone bedrock, which creates a distinctive grassland habitat and is quarried for the iconic golden‑coloured Cotswold stone. The landscape features stone‑built villages, stately homes, and gardens that showcase the local stone. Broadway, a nearby village between Evesham and Moreton‑in‑Marsh, is sometimes referred to as the "Jewel of the Cotswolds" and lies beneath Fish Hill on the western Cotswold. The Cotswolds’ rolling hills rise from the meadows of the upper River Thames to an escarpment above the Severn Valley and the Vale of Evesham, with the highest point, Cleeve Hill, standing at 1,083 ft (330 m) just east of Cheltenham. The area’s rural character and historic architecture provide a quintessential English countryside setting for residents and visitors alike.
