Titterstone Clee Hill, sometimes referred to as Titterstone Clee or simply Clee Hill, is a prominent hill in the county of Shropshire, England. It rises to 533 metres (1,749 ft) above sea level at the summit, making it the third-highest hill in the county after Brown Clee Hill and Stiperstones.
The hill forms part of the Clee Hills, which lie within the Shropshire Hills National Landscape (formerly known as 'Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty'). The nearest town is Ludlow, visible from parts of Cleehill village on the slopes of the hill. On clear days, long-distance views are possible towards the Malvern Hills, the Brecon Beacons, the Shropshire Plain and, in the distance, the Welsh mountains.
A 20th-century triangulation pillar stands at the summit, close to the remains of ancient cairns and modern radar domes used for air traffic control and weather monitoring.
