Severus Hill, located in the historic city of York, holds a fascinating past. It was believed to be the site of the cremation of Roman Emperor Septimius Severus, and during World War II, an unexploded bomb was dropped on the site. Today, it stands as a symbol of nature's resilience in an urban environment, providing a sanctuary for wildlife and playing an essential part in improving York's biodiversity.
In Spring 2024 Friends of Severus Hill will be launching a community fundraising initiative to put local residents in the best place for making a bid for the site in Summer 2024.
