The Malvern Hills, on the border of Worcestershire and Herefordshire, rise up from the Severn Plain up to 1394 feet.

Answer 3

I am in Hyderabad, the geographic center of Deccan plateau in India. This plateau is at an average elevation of a thousand feet.

Hyderabad is at 1800' with hills strewn around. Banjara hills & Jubilee hills at the west of city have become now residential posh areas with land prices unaffordable for a common man (Our family used to have a 1000sq.meter area, but we sold it!). All hills here are weathered over a million years or more into smooth, weird shapes. Some are arranged like columns one rock on top of another, as though a giant kid playfully arranged. Some summits are a hundred feet above their surroundings. They are so precariously perched that they appear to tumble any moment; but are there for centuries. The hectic pace of construction (of houses, offices, malls, hotels), realtor business and quarrying removed one hill after the other. Near where I am building a home, the hills called 'Fakruddin gutta' have been pulverised by a city developers whose business is worth billions of rupees. I heard that there is a society or association of hill lovers in the city!
