Faulds Brow

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Faulds Brow is a small rise, north west of the village of Caldbeck in Cumbria, England. It is classified as an "Outlying Fell" by Alfred Wainwright, but its summit, at 344m (~1129 ft), is only slightly raised above the surrounding land. From a major road just to the south, the summit can be reached in minutes, with minimal effort. Nevertheless, the summit has wide views to High Pike to the south, and to the Solway Firth and beyond to Scotland to the north. The fell is largely covered by heather, and there is a small abandoned quarry just to the east of the summit.

Prominently seen from the summit are two broadcasting attenna to the north, which lie just outside the Lake District National Park boundary, which passes just north of Faulds Brow.
