Meugher, Mountain summit in Yorkshire Dales, England

Meugher rises to an elevation of 575 meters, featuring a conical peak marked by an Ordnance Survey triangulation pillar in the Yorkshire landscape.

The name Meugher originated in 1120 as 'Magare', derived from Old Norse 'mjór haugr' meaning 'small hill' in the Yorkshire region.

The summit stands between Wharfedale and Nidderdale within the Nidderdale Area of Outstanding Beauty, just outside Yorkshire Dales National Park.

Access to the summit involves following a shooting track from Lofthouse that reaches within 430 meters of the peak through open access land.

The drainage system includes Meugher Dyke on the southern flank, Back Stean Gill on the eastern side, and Cross Gill on western flanks.

Elevation above the sea: 575 m
