Brim Fell, Mountain summit in Lake District, England
Located at 796 meters elevation in the Coniston range, Brim Fell features exposed rock formations and provides views across the surrounding valleys and peaks.
The mountain slopes contain remnants of 19th-century copper mining operations, including shafts and tunnels that were most productive during the 1850s.
Alfred Wainwright included Brim Fell among the 214 peaks documented in his influential Pictorial Guide to the Lakeland Fells series.
The ascent to Brim Fell connects with multiple walking paths, offering hikers various route options from the village of Coniston or neighboring summits.
Seathwaite Tarn on the western slopes was enlarged through damming in the early 20th century to supply drinking water to Barrow-in-Furness.
