}}Pleasant Hill is an unincorporated community in Dallas County, Alabama.[2]

History

The community began as a trading post called Fort Rascal prior to the Indian removal, it gained a post office in the 1840s and the name was changed to Pleasant Hill.[3] The community was visited by Philip Henry Gosse, an English naturalist, for an eight-month period in 1838 when he taught school for Reuben Saffold, a local planter. His studies and drawings of the flora and fauna of the area and his recollections of slavery were later published in his book Letters from Alabama.[4] Pleasant Hill has one site included on the National Register of Historic Places, the Pleasant Hill Presbyterian Church.[5] It has several sites listed on the Alabama Register of Landmarks and Heritage and one nearby, Belvoir.[6]
