One you'll probably only visit if you're completing the Peak District Ethels challenge, Britland Edge Hill is a wet, boggy moorland peak. There isn't anything to mark the summit other than a puddle next to a fence post, despite the OS map claiming there's a stake! We parked at Holme Moss and followed the seemingly never ending fence line through the bogs to reach the summit before heading off to Dead Edge End. I'd recommend waterproof socks!

An unassuming Peak District summit, with no summit markers, but is one of the Peak District Ethels. It's usually very wet up here!
