The views from the trig pillar of Humphrey Head are fantastic. You can see the Coniston fells clearly, and further to the right you can see the Fairfield range.

The views out over Morecambe Bay are equally stunning. I visited at sunset and it was the ideal time to walk this small fell (the smallest of Alfred Wainwright's Outlying Fells of Lakeland).
