Appears to be a non-notable spot height. Unsourced except for https://trip-suggest.com/united-states/florida/rock-hill whose only "interesting facts" are a copy of the Wikipedia article. Appears originally to have been a hoax: the 2005 first version asserts that is is the "sixth highest point in Florida.", which does not correspond with our List of Florida's highest points which has 10s of hills higher than its 193ft. Note that this article has been the subject of attention as part of the WP:FEB24 unreferenced backlog drive: this one looks like an article whose deletion would benefit the encyclopedia.

- Delete topomaps seems to imply the exact location it says to be should be above 200 feet as well (see this Florida topomap). And even if the height is correct, there seems to be nothing notable and not coverage of this point so if a reliable enough source of the height/is it a real, named hill, then a redirect/entry could be added to List of Florida's highest points.

- delete This is a real train wreck on the maps: somehow a physical feature label in older topos shifts over and turns into a populated place label, attached to a small cluster of houses which I would question constitute a town of any sort. There's thus no GNIS entry for the hill, only for the pop. place. The hill, named or not, is taller than 193 ft. but its not clear how tall it is. I should note that this article was originally at Rock Hill, Florida but was moved. Given the confusion I'm really dubious this can be reliably sourced. Mangoe ( talk) 21:18, 7 February 2024 (UTC)
- Of the three sources, two are not about this subject and the third is a mirror of this very article and circular. No sources turn up. But I did find that this has successfully masked for 2 decades the real Rock Hill, Florida that is a private nature conservancy near to Chipley, Florida in a different county that has a handful of biological and botanical sources. It was going to be a state park like Falling Waters State Park but never managed to become it and is private instead. I might steal that redirect, although none of the edit history behind it is required to start afresh, thank you. Delete. Uncle G ( talk) 09:31, 8 February 2024 (UTC)
