The Mountains of England and Wales: Vol 2 England

England has 254 Nuttall summits—every hill over 2000ft that rises at least 50ft above its surroundings. They span a remarkable range of landscape and character, from the high fell ridges of the Lake District to the remote moorland of the Cheviots, the broad plateau of the North Pennines, the limestone country of the Yorkshire Dales, the gritstone edges of the Peak District, and the granite tors of Dartmoor. Written by John and Anne Nuttall, the walkers who defined the list, this comprehensive Cicerone guidebook covers all 254 English summits across 60 routes, with detailed descriptions, maps, and hand-drawn illustrations for every top. The 254 summits are organized into 13 chapters by region, making it straightforward to plan days out by area. Highlights include Blencathra, Great Gable, Coniston Old Man, Pillar and Helvellyn in the Lake District; Kinder Scout and Bleaklow in the Peak District; Cross Fell in the North Pennines; and High Willhays on Dartmoor. Detailed route descriptions cover routes of varying difficulty, from broad ridgeline walks to more demanding terrain, with clear guidance on what to expect on each summit. Pillar Rock is the only summit requiring a rock climb. The guide also includes definitive Nuttall lists, an alphabetical index of all tops, a section covering deleted tops, and notes on map selection and access for each area—everything you need to explore England's mountain heritage.
