Known in Welsh as Bryn Bach, Bache Hill is a subsidiary summit of Great Rhos in Radnor Forest, east of Black Mixen. Its trig point stands on an ancient burial mound, probably Bronze Age, and some walkers doubt its 2,000-foot status because 610 m might be the top of the man-made mound. The listed high point is open ground about 110 m west of the tumulus.
