Heath Mynd is a hill in the English county of Shropshire. At a height of 452 metres (1,483 ft) it is fairly unnotable except for its Marilyn status,[1] a feature caused by the sharp drop on all sides. It is connected to Corndon Hill by a low col, and is only just inside England, being just one mile from the border with Wales. The nearby village is Norbury; nearest towns are Bishop's Castle and Church Stretton. Its nearest neighbour (visible in the photo) is called Cefn Gunthly.
