Broom Fell

Broom Fell is a mountain summit in the Lake District positioned between Lord's Seat and Graystones. The peak reaches 511 meters and features grassy slopes with a stone wall marking the highest point.

The fell gained recognition through Alfred Wainwright's detailed accounts of Lake District peaks published during the 20th century. His guidebook series helped establish it as a known hiking destination.

The fell is part of a collection of peaks that regional hikers visit regularly. It serves as a waypoint in traditional fell-walking routes that connect multiple summits.

Visitors planning to explore this area should carry reliable maps since navigation is essential in these hills. Good footwear and layered clothing are necessary due to changing mountain weather conditions.

A mysterious wall terminates at the highest point, accompanied by a small wind shelter built into the ground. On clear days, views extend toward the Solway Firth from this vantage point.
