Turville Hill, Protected chalk grassland in Chilterns, United Kingdom
Turville Hill extends across 22.4 hectares of steeply sloping terrain, featuring diverse plant species that support rare butterfly populations in Buckinghamshire.
The hill received its designation as a Site of Special Scientific Interest in 1984, marking its importance for conservation in the Chiltern region.
The prominent Cobstone Windmill stands at the summit of Turville Hill, becoming a recognized symbol of traditional agricultural heritage in the area.
