Tarn Crag is a bit of a head scratcher as there isn't a tarn in sight! This 2,178-foot (664 m) Wainwright fell in the Far Eastern Lake District is really out on the edge and you get the sense of being a bit disconnected from the rest of the Wainwrights here. It is however a beautiful setting and you'll always find peace and quiet.

Boggy in the dip coming down name greycrag tarn (although there's no tarn). Easy walk up following the fence/wall line most the way from Grey Crag to Tarn Crag and then once again to continue onto Branstree.
