Southern Cemetery, Nottingham on Wilford Hill

Wilford Hill is a community of mainly detached three and four-bedroom homes in West Bridgford. Constructed on "closes of land lying and being on the North West side of Loughborough Road in the Parish of Wilford in the County of Nottingham".

The land changed hands several times from the 1920s up until houses were completed in the 1950s, with some of those on Stanhome Drive being completed in April 1958.

Heymann Primary School was completed on Wilford Hill and opened in 1959.

Wilford Hill borders the Compton Acres development as well as the older areas of West Bridgford. It is in the Lutterell Ward of Rushcliffe Borough Council.

As well as being a residential location, the Southern Cemetery for Nottingham is located on 'Wilford Hill' itself.

Wilford Hill is the highest point in Nottinghamshire on the Trent's south bank, giving views of the Trent Valley as far as Newark-on-Trent.
