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.
