The
New Hill Billies
A
group of residents who call themselves "The New Hill
Billies" have joined together to help preserve and restore
the area known as New Hill. It was bought by the Corporation of
London (now known as the City of London again) in 2001. The New
Hill Billies are working with the City of London's keepers to
keep the area in good condition. It's not all hard work though,
and they do have an annual outing and barbecues.
If you would
like to join them, or just want more information, call:
