For "brow of hill" which I have often heard, my dictionary gives:
4 the projecting top edge of a steep hill or cliff

This low brow (not to be confused with Löwenbrau), would use "top" most often, but has used "brow" and could do so without artifice. I don't think I have ever used, or would ever use, "crest".

CapK enthuses: I just love this Board, I really do. Mass invitations to visit transmogrified into the girls * trying to prove who the biggest hoon on the road is!
Glad I didn't participate beyond the initial invite - since I'm not a "girl." And what is a "hoon"?

* should that be girls' ?
