The southern top along the ridge of Low Fell looks down over Loweswater village. Alfred Wainwright thought this might be the true summit of Low Fell at the time he was writing his guidebooks but the maps of the time weren't very accurate. The true summit is in fact further north (marked 423m on the map). The southern top is still worth a visit though as the view is stunning.
