A splendid hill with a wide-ranging panorama of both Cumrbian coast to the west and mountains to the east. This Outlying Wainwright Fell makes for a lovely ramble from Egremont, Cleator Moor or Ennerdale Bridge. The nearby Nannycatch Gorge is also well worth checking out, under the slopes of Flat Fell.

Alfred Wainwright picked the slightly smaller top on Dent as the summit of this Outlying Wainwright Fell - 346m (as opposed to the true summit which is marked by a smaller cairn to the southeast at 352m).
