Allusion
Allan Henry's sitting room had one wall that was all plate glass, perhaps forty feet long. It had wide green views across to one of the conical, wooded humps known as Robin Hood's Butts. Appropriately, according to legend, the Butts had been dumped there by the Devil, making him Hereford's first sporadic developer.[1]

IRHB comments
The Cure of Souls is one of Phil Rickman's Merrily Watkins mysteries, a series of 'spiritual thrillers'. There are two Robin Hood's Butts in Canon Pyon. It is not clear to me which of them is meant.
