Black Mountain South Top is a top of Black Mountain in the Black Mountains (not to be confused with the Black Mountain range of hills). It is a top which falls exactly on the Welsh-English border, straddling Powys and Herefordshire. The Offa's Dyke Path passes over the summit.
The top is an undistinguished heathery bump on Hatterall Ridge. The summit is marked by a small pile of stones.[1]
