Heron Hill is the de facto name of the newest dominion admitted to the Kingdom of Florenia. Situated on the southwestern bank of Floren Pond North of the Dominion of Afula, Heron Hill occupies 10 acres with numerous structures, a brook, forest, and meadows. The dominion was admitted to Florenia on 11 January 2024 following an act of Parliament.

With the passage of the act of Parliament, the dominion's six residents gained Florenian citizenship and therefore the right to sit in the Kingdom's direct democratic national legislature. The admission was spurred by the sale of its territory by the former longtime owners who had enjoyed very friendly relations with the Florenian royal family. Fears of a possible thaw in relations proved unwarranted; the new residents expressed an interest in joining Florenia and developed similar close ties to the royal family.

Heron Hill has yet to be officially named and to establish any local government authorities. Per the New Dominion Act 2024, these efforts will be coordinated through the Council of State. Heron Hill was selected by the dominion's residents, referencing the Great blue heron which can be seen around the Pond as well as the large hill rising from the Pond's shores that the dominion sits on; it is expected to be announced as the official name shortly.

Heron Hill and Afula are directly connected via a path through Heron Hill's orchards, and each dominion contains its own system of paths and driveways. The dominion is home to a modernist style residence and numerous outbuildings including workshops and a garage.
