About

Shooters Hill is a residential district in southeast London, marked by its elevated position and expansive green spaces.

The landscape is defined by ancient woodland, with Oxleas Wood and Severndroog Castle forming a significant part of the terrain. The castle, an 18th-century Gothic folly, sits atop the hill within the preserved woodlands, offering a distinct local landmark amidst the trees.
