Broad Down, looking north to Black Hill's two tops
Range: Malvern Hills
Summit: 958 feet SO762395

Broad Down in the Malvern Hills is a hill of 958 feet mainly on the Worcestershire side of the hills, forming the south side of the curve of hillsides all around the dip in which the British Camp Reservoir lies.

Broad Down is south of Tinkers Hill and north of Hangmans Hill, and southeast of the Herefordshire Beacon and Millennium Hill.

On the southwest side of the hill, as it reaches the county boundary, the hillside descends in a sharp escarpment down to the News Wood.
