England's Highest Mountains
Although England is the poor relation on the British Mainland in mountain
scale there are still over 200 which reach over 2,000 feet (610 metres) in
height. Most, including the 10 highest are located in the north western
corner of the country within the Lake District National Park. Over 95% of
them are in the north with the majority confined to the Lakes, North
Pennines and Yorkshire Dales. Six more are on the border with Scotland in
the Cheviot Hills and another six
within the Howgill Fells. The North
Midlands have just three within the Peak District National Park and
the South West can claim just two, High Willhays and Yes Tor, both on Dartmoor. The following table lists every English Mountain over
2,000 feet in height in order from highest to lowest. Locations and Grid References are included. Links lead to walks featuring
the relevant mountain. How many have you climbed?
