The Tilbrook Hill is a 70 m high hill in the southeast of Signy Iceland in the archipelago of the South Orkney Islands . It rises between Hillier Moss and Caloplaca Cove .
The Falkland Islands Dependencies Survey named it in 1990 after the biologist Peter John Tilbrook (* 1938), who was in a leading position for the British Antarctic Survey from 1961 to 1975 and made a significant contribution to the establishment of two observation stations not far from this hill.
