The hill
2016th of 2,342 by height.
312 m, with 168 m of drop — 1296th most prominent of the 2,342 hills on a list here. It rises further above its surroundings than its height alone suggests — a hill that stands on its own rather than a high point on a longer ridge. Classed as Marilyn, HuMP, historic county top and administrative county top.
