Geology
The fell is made of layered mudstone, siltstone, and sandstone. These sediments once settled on a deep ocean floor, eventually hardening into the solid rock beneath your boots.

Did You Know?

  • •Although officially 'nameless' in many geographic databases, Alfred Wainwright categorised this summit as part of his Green Quarter Fell circuit, describing the area as a delightful place for a 'stroll on a sunny afternoon.'
  • •The fell provides an excellent, low-level perspective of the Kentmere Horseshoe, specifically the steep eastern flanks of the Ill Bell ridge and the head of the Kentmere Reservoir.
  • •The name 'Green Quarter' refers to one of the four traditional administrative divisions, or quarters, that made up the ancient parish of Kentmere.
  • •Identifying the actual summit can be a test of patience; the top is a broad, mossy plateau where the most prominent landmark is often a nearby drystone wall rather than a traditional cairn.
