List of hills of Cornwall : ウィキペディア英語版 | List of hills of Cornwall This is a list of hills in Cornwall based on data compiled in various sources, but particularly the (''Database of British and Irish Hills'' ), Jackson's ''More Relative Hills of Britain''〔 and the Ordnance Survey 1:25,000 ''Explorer'' and 1:50,000 ''Landranger'' map series. Many of these hills are important historic, archaeological and nature conservation sites, as well as popular hiking and tourist destinations in the county of Cornwall in southwest England. ==Colour key==
The table is colour-coded based on the classification or "listing" of the hill. The two types that occur in Cornwall are Marilyns and HuMPs, listings based on topographical prominence. "Prominence" correlates strongly with the subjective significance of a summit. Peaks with low prominences are either subsidiary tops of a higher summit or relatively insignificant independent summits. Peaks with high prominences tend to be the highest points around and likely to have extraordinary views. A Marilyn is a hill with a prominence of at least 150 metres or about 500 feet. A "HuMP" (the acronym comes from "Hundred Metre Prominence) is a hill with a prominence of at least 100 but less than 150 metres. In this table Marilyns are in beige and HuMPs in lilac. The term "sub-Marilyn" or "sub-HuMP" is used, e.g. in the online (''Database of British and Irish Hills'' ) to indicate hills that fall just below the threshold. To qualify for inclusion, hills must either be 200 metres or higher with a prominence of at least 30 metres, below 200 metres with a prominence of at least 90 metres (the threshold for a sub-HuMP) or be in some other way notable. For further information see the Lists of mountains and hills in the British Isles and the individual articles on Marilyns and HuMPs.
