Seathwaite Fell


Seathwaite Fell is an area of the Lake District in Cumbria, England. It stands above the hamlet of the same name at the head of Borrowdale.
==Position of the summit==

The fell is very rugged with several small tops along the summit of the ridge. At the northern end is a peaked summit at 1,971 ft (601 m), very prominent from the valley below. Alfred Wainwright took this as the summit of the fell in his influential ''Pictorial Guide to the Lakeland Fells'', even though he readily acknowledged that it wasn't the highest point. This is one of many subjective decisions which differentiate Wainwrights from more modern (and logical) hill lists such as Nuttalls and Hewitts. Wainwright stated that the 1,971 ft top was ''generally regarded as the summit of the fell'', although he cited no references. Other guidebooks have taken Wainwright's lead, Mark Richards stating ''Stand upon that ''(northern)'' pike and you know why tradition has ordained this to be the summit. The view down Borrowdale is peerless. A new generation of fellwalkers may arrive seeking to overthrow the traditional perception and feeling no compunction at adopting the highest ground as a summit.''〔Richards, Mark: ''Mid-Western Fells'': Collins (2004): ISBN 0-00-711368-4〕 Richards does at least acknowledge the highest point as a top, as does Birkett, who gives equal status to both.〔Birkett, Bill: ''Complete Lakeland Fells'': Collins Willow (1994): ISBN 0-00-218406-0〕
To provide ease of identification, the highest point (2,073 ft, 632 m) is immediately east of Great Slack on Ordnance Survey maps. Great Slack being the name of the broad rake on the sw of the fell. Pt. 632 stands near the centre of the fell and is listed as a Nuttall and a Hewitt, but not of course as a Wainwright. The situation is further complicated by a third top to the south (2,070 ft, 631 m). This has been of little interest to guidebook writers, but of great significance to the authors of modern hill lists based purely upon height and prominence. Thus Seathwaite Fell South Top, unnamed on maps, is a Nuttall, reducing the 'traditional' summit to third place.
