Lonscale Fell, Mountain summit in Lake District, Northern England.

The Lonscale Fell summit reaches an elevation of 715 meters and features a pronounced eastern peak known as Lonscale Pike at 703 meters.

The Glenderaterra and Brundholme mines operated beneath the eastern crags of Lonscale Fell until 1920, extracting lead from the mountainous terrain.

The mountain belongs to the collection of Wainwright Hills, a classification system deeply embedded in Lake District hiking and mountaineering traditions.

Multiple walking paths lead to the summit from Keswick, with the eastern route providing direct access through established sheep grazing pastures.

The geological composition includes laminated mudstone and siltstone from the Kirk Stile Formation, creating distinct layered patterns in the rock face.

Elevation above the sea: 715 m

GPS coordinates: 54.63435,-3.10845
