Hill is a small rural hamlet in North Devon, in the county of Devon, England. It sits among rolling farmland and narrow lanes typical of the area, with a handful of traditional stone cottages and working farmsteads giving it a quiet, unhurried character.
Locally the economy is centred on dairy and mixed farming, with holiday accommodation and visitor activity boosting trade in the warmer months; the hamlet is also within easy reach of the dramatic North Devon coast and surrounding moorland, so it attracts walkers and people seeking a quieter base. Historically the settlement reflects long-established agricultural patterns - hedged fields, cider orchards and stone walls - and community life tends to be parish-focused and informal, with events and facilities shared with neighbouring villages.
