Green Hill

Green Hill is a mountain summit in Lancashire that rises to 628 meters above sea level. It forms a watershed between the River Dee and Leck Beck, which are both tributaries of the River Lune.

The County Stone, a glacial boulder near the summit, once marked where the borders of Westmorland, Yorkshire, and Lancashire met. This stone served as an important boundary marker between three historic counties.

The summit represents the highest elevation point among 412 mountains within Lancashire and ranks as the 50th highest peak in Yorkshire Dales National Park.

The summit can be reached via established hiking trails that wind through the surrounding landscape. Visitors should bring weatherproof gear, as the exposed elevation means conditions can change quickly.

A secondary knoll located about 450 meters south of the main summit comes remarkably close in height to the peak. These two high points together create an interesting topographic feature in the landscape.
