What is recorded here
Old Adam's Hill is shown as a mountain / peak on the public map of Blackburn with Darwen. The saved point is the map point or the centre of its mapped shape.
Old Adam's Hill is a low prominence of around 150–180 metres, forming part of the undulating landscape of the West Pennine Moors. Its name may derive from a local folk etymology linking it to the biblical "Old Adam," though no specific folklore is widely recorded. It matters as a named feature in the historical mapping of Blackburn with Darwen, reflecting early topographical recognition of the area's minor elevations.
