843 m, with 705 m of drop — 51st 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, Simm, Corbett, Donald, historic county top, current county top and administrative county top.
