Ordnance Survey Triangulation Pillars 

GPS Waypoints of all UK Ordnance Survey Trig. Points


Wainwrights 

The hills & mountains featured in the seven volumes of Alfred Wainwright's "A Pictorial Guide to the Lakeland Fells".
 
The grid references listed below represent the single highest point above sea level. Wainwright however sometimes chose a summit location that is not the highest point of the fell. Our policy is to acknowledge the location intended by Wainwright. Click on the "" icon and if an alternate Wainwright summit location exists it will be listed in the "Summit Feature" section. More information is available here... "The Wainwright Summits".


Munros 

Scottish Munro Mountains - The Munros are the highest of Scotland's mountains, 282 mountain tops named after the man who first catalogued them, Sir Hugh Munro.

Data courtesy of Alex Cameron, John Gillham, Myrddyn Phillips, Adrian Rayner, Mark Trengove and Rob Woodall.


HuMPs

Hills of any height with a drop of at least 100 metres or more on all sides. The name HuMP stands for Hundred Metre Prominence. (All Marilyns are HuMPs) The original source for the HuMPs list was Dr Eric Yeaman's "Handbook of the Scottish Hills", published by Wafaida in 1989. Clem Clements applied Yeaman's original criteria to England and Wales, and christened the results "Yeomans".


Grahams

Graham Mountains: - A Graham is a hill from 610 metres to 761 metres high inclusive (2000-2499 feet), with a drop of at least 150 metres all round. Originally, Scottish hills in this height range were referred to as Elsies (short for Lesser Corbetts).


Wainwrights Vol. 8

Donalds

Hills in the Scottish Lowlands at least 2000 feet high. 'Tops' are all elevations with a drop of at least 100 feet (30.48m) on all sides and elevations of sufficient topographical merit with a drop of between 50 and 100 feet. Certain of these are designated 'Hills' according to a complex formula based on both distance and drop.


Munro Tops

Scottish 'Tops': - Munro Tops are subsidiary summits to Munros which although meeting the height criterion for a Munro are not deemed to be separate to be distinct Munros.


P30 TUMPs

TUMPs or P30s are hills of any height with a drop of at least 30 metres or more on all sides. The name TUMP stands for Thirty & Upward Metres Prominence.


Deweys

Y Pedwarau

A 'Pedwar' is a hill in Wales between the heights of 400 metres and 499 metres that has a minimum drop of 30 metres. As there are some 447 such hills, and they are over 400 metres high, it seems fitting to name them 'Y Pedwarau' , as the Welsh word 'Pedwar' translates as 'Four'.

Further details at Mapping Mountains Publications


Dewey's Notable Tops

The "Notable Hill Tops of England and Wales" were included in the Mountain Tables by Michael Dewey published 1995 by Constable, along with his better-known 500m hill list. The Notables are all in England and Wales, generally outside the main high mountain/moor areas.
(52 of the hills in this list are in addition to those hills sourced from the DoBIH, the other 280 link to the DoBIH Hill/Tump details.)


Dillons

Fellrangers

The Fellrangers a Lake District list for which the LDWA has created a Hillwalkers Register


Yeamans

The hills listed by Dr Eric Yeaman in his Handbook of the Scottish Hills (Wafaida, 1989). There were 2441 hills in the original book, the first ever publication known to prioritise relative over absolute height in its selection:

"For the purposes of this Handbook, a hill is defined as an eminence which has an ascent of 100m all round, or, failing that, is at least 5km (walking distance) from any higher point".

The Yeamans were the precursor of the HuMPs in Scotland, often referred to as 'New Yeamans' in the early stages, but 167 other hills were included by virtue of the 5km distance rule.

Yeaman later circulated an update sheet with copies of his book, in which he identified 65 additional hills, 11 deletions and 6 substitutions, one of which was subsequently reversed. Additions are included here alongside the complete original list.


Clems

After the publication of Dr Eric Yeaman's Handbook of the Scottish Hills (Wafaida, 1989), E.D. 'Clem' Clements set out to extend Yeaman's criteria to England and Wales. Clem's original handwritten list, completed in the early 1990s, comprised 1284 hills.

The process of verifying and digitising this handwritten document took many years and involved numerous contributors, notably Rob Woodall, Myrddyn Phillips, Gary Honey, Gordon Adshead and Iain Cameron; Clem made some additions to the list in 2004 bringing the total to 1298 hills, and this list later formed the basis for later HuMP research.

Clem himself referred to hills on his list as 'Yeomans', but here they have been renamed 'Clems' in his honour by way of remembering the man and recognising his achievement.


Hardys

The Ethel's are a tribute to Ethel Haythornthwaite who pioneered the establishment of the Peak District as Britain's first national park in 1951. The Peak District and South Yorkshire branch of the CPRE countryside charity announced The Ethels in May 2021. The Ethels were devised in early 2021 by CPRE volunteer Doug Colton, who then built the Ethel Ready smartphone app for hill bagging. Most of the Ethels lie within the Peak District National Park, but others lie outside its borders.


Furth Munros

Sub-Dochartys

Sub Docharty - Docharty's objective was to list all points on the 1 inch O.S. Maps with a minimum requirement for a 'Top' being one 50-foot contour, for Ireland the minimum was one 100-foot contour. However Docharty decided that some of the heights marked on the map, which on being visited did not appear to have sufficient individuality to qualify as 'Tops' so these were included under a Remarks column in respect of Scotland and Ireland and a fifth column in respect of Wales and England for Part 1 and under a Remarks column for Part 2. None of these added through to Docharty’s Summary Tables.
Also included within subs are 'tops' or eminences unrecorded on the maps but identified by Docharty while on excursion.
The lists are defined by the original publications and is not subject to revision.
Each of the four constituents of the British Isles are included: Scotland 533 summits, Ireland 25, Wales 41 and England 89, totalling 688.

The definition of 'easily accessed' summits are those that can be comfortably ascended by walking, involving nothing more challenging than easy grade 1 scrambling. They were researched by Alan Holmes. Initially confined to Britain, in August 2018 the list was extended to include Ireland, Isle of Man and the Channel Isles.

Thanks to Aled Williams and Myrddyn Phillips for use of their LIDAR data analysis and Trimble GeoXH 6000 survey results for additional hills which contribute to this list.


The Separate Mountains 

A summit needs to be over 600m height and have 90, 100, 120 or 150m of drop to qualify, depending on how dissected an area is. Dissectedness is calculated by counting the number of segments each hill group is split into by the 400m contour and dividing this by the number of 10km grid squares it covers. The list was originally compiled in 1974 from OS 1 inch maps, metricated from 1976-82 as second series metric maps came out, then adjusted in 2023 using data from the DoBIH.

List compiled and maintained by Iain Thow
