Raymond's Hill is a small village in East Devon, Devon, England, sitting just to the west of Axminster near the county boundary with Dorset. Perched on a modest ridge above the Axe valley and close to the A35, it offers views across rolling farmland and is within easy reach of the Jurassic Coast, which helps bring visitors to the area.
Predominantly rural, the community is made up of cottages and converted farm buildings and relies on agriculture, local services in nearby towns and a modest amount of tourism; Axminster's historic weaving industry and the nearby coastal attractions influence the local economy. Socially it's a close‑knit place with few amenities of its own, its history reflecting the pattern of small East Devon hamlets with centuries of farming and a scattering of Victorian and earlier buildings rather than grand landmarks.
