Alfred Wainwright had a habit of including 'nameless' summits in his walks for the book, The Outlying Fells of Lakeland. He simply lists them as their height in feet. Despite its lack of a name, we 'bagged' this peak regardless. The top (which is one of many known as 'Potter Fell') is surrounded by heather which is beautifully purple in August.
