802 m, with 417 m of drop — 252nd 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, Hewitt, Nuttall, Wainwright, historic county top and administrative county top.
