You do not have permission to edit this page, for the following reasons:

This IP address has been blocked from editing Wikipedia.
This does not affect your ability to read Wikipedia pages.
Most people who see this message have done nothing wrong. Some kinds of blocks restrict editing from specific service providers or telecom companies in response to recent abuse or vandalism, and can sometimes affect other users who are unrelated to that abuse. Review the information below for assistance if you do not believe that you have done anything wrong.

The IP address or range 44.195.0.0/16 has been blocked (disabled) by ‪Blablubbs‬ for the following reason(s):

The IP address that you are currently using has been blocked because it is believed to be a web host provider or colocation provider. To prevent abuse, web hosts and colocation providers may be blocked from editing Wikipedia.
You will not be able to edit Wikipedia using a web host or colocation provider because it hides your IP address, much like a proxy or VPN.
We recommend that you attempt to use another connection to edit. For example, if you use a proxy or VPN to connect to the internet, turn it off when editing Wikipedia. If you edit using a mobile connection, try using a Wi-Fi connection, and vice versa. If you are using a corporate internet connection, switch to a different Wi-Fi network. If you have a Wikipedia account, please log in.
If you do not have any other way to edit Wikipedia, you will need to request an IP block exemption.

How to appeal if you are confident that your connection does not use a colocation provider's IP address:
If you are confident that you are not using a web host, you may appeal this block by adding the following text on your talk page: ((unblock|reason=Caught by a colocation web host block but this host or IP is not a web host. My IP address is _______. Place any further information here. ~~~~)). You must fill in the blank with your IP address for this block to be investigated. Your IP address can be determined here. Alternatively, if you wish to keep your IP address private you can use the unblock ticket request system. There are several reasons you might be editing using the IP address of a web host or colocation provider (such as if you are using VPN software or a business network); please use this method of appeal only if you think your IP address is in fact not a web host or colocation provider.

Administrators: The IP block exemption user right should only be applied to allow users to edit using web host in exceptional circumstances, and requests should usually be directed to the functionaries team via email. If you intend to give the IPBE user right, a CheckUser needs to take a look at the account. This can be requested most easily at SPI Quick Checkuser Requests. Unblocking an IP or IP range with this template is highly discouraged without at least contacting the blocking administrator.

This block will expire on 09:46, 11 January 2025.

Even when blocked, you will usually still be able to edit your user talk page, as well as email administrators and other editors.

For information on how to proceed, please read the FAQ for blocked users and the guideline on block appeals. The guide to appealing blocks may also be helpful.

'''Wilford Hill''' is the highest point in [[West Bridgford]], giving views of the Trent Valley as far as [[Newark-on-Trent]]. It is listed as having an elevation of 87m and a prominence of 49m.

The area has historic significance due to its prominence and the presence of the Kings Road or old great road running cross its top, which was the main route from London and Leicester to the north of the country. By 1914 it was already thought to have been neglected for 150 years, so that "no cart could possibly cross it".<ref>((Cite web |title=Nottinghamshire history > Old Nottingham suburbs: then and now, (1914) |url=http://www.nottshistory.org.uk/articles/mellorsarticles/wilford3.htm |access-date=2023-03-17 |website=www.nottshistory.org.uk))</ref> The old road is known locally as "The Spinney".

Wilford Hill and [[Sharphill Wood]] were listed in 1066<ref>((Cite web|url=https://domesday.pase.ac.uk/Domesday?op=5&nameinfo_id=3109&orderField=lord1066|title=Gytha))</ref> as having belonged to Gytha, wife of Earl Ralph ([[Ralph the Timid]]), later transferred to the ownership of [[William Peverel]] a favourite knight of [[William the Conqueror]], first sheriff of Nottingham, and lord of Nottingham Castle.<ref>A description of holdings in Derbyshire, from the Domesday Book (http://www.infokey.com/Domesday/Derbyshire.htm). A local history of Duston, Northampton (http://www.duston.org.uk/peverel.htm).</ref>

A community of mainly detached three and four-bedroom homes in [[West Bridgford]] arose. 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". It was mainly farmland until the early 1950s when local builders Frank Goulding Limited started building on the land. The first houses follow a similar pattern to those on Repton and Harrow Roads (if on a smaller scale), with 1930s styling and pyramidal roofs, later bungalows and houses with gable roofs followed. Voids were left during building that were later filled, resulting in a mixed style of properties and roof types.

Heymann Primary School was completed on Wilford Hill and opened in 1959. This now acts as a feeder school for [[West Bridgford School]] which lays just to the North of the housing on Wilford Hill.

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 and the [[crematorium]] for [[Nottingham]] is located on 'Wilford Hill' itself.
