'''Jutogh''' is a suburb of [[Simla|Simla City]].
The ''Gazetteer of the Simla District 1904'' states:
"The station of Jutogh lies in a detached hill overlooking the old Kalka and Simla road, some three miles from the west end of [[Simla]]. The hill was acquired by the British Government in 1843. It was first occupied by a regiment of Gurkhas, and was afterwards made over to the Governors of the Bishop Cotton School, but, being found unsuitable for this purpose, was for a time abandoned. Two batteries of British Mountain Artillery and two companies of British Infantry are stationed here during the summer months".
