DOD FELL. 23 



Fell, 2019 N. ; and north of it a point called Ten End, 19] 9 feet. 

 All these are small areas of gritstone. Cam Fell, which runs 

 out S.W. of Dod, is a fine mountain swell of the highest thick 

 Yoredale limestone, 1926 feet N. Wharfe springs on the S.E. 

 side of this mountain, which may also claim some share in the 

 parentage of Kibble. The prospect to the south is very fine and 

 extensive. We may take Cam as a Teutonic element, signifying 

 f crest ' : in Celtic it would signify ' crooked/ 



BETWEEN YOREDALE AND WHARFDALE. Above the sources 

 of Simmer* Water is a small group of heights, of which Yo- 

 kenthwaite Moor, 2114 N., is the highest. Between Simmer 

 Water and Bishopdale, on the south side of Yoredale, is the 

 little group, of which Addleburgh and Stake Fell are the highest 

 points. Addleburgh, 1565 feet N., is a limestone hill, but on 

 its summit are some blocks of gritstone, perhaps monuments of 

 Druidical times. It is, as its Teutonic name signifies, a noble 

 mountain, though of such moderate elevation. Stake Fell, 

 1843 feet N., is a less interesting summit of gritstone, over the 

 romantic pass by which communication is made from Askrigg to 

 Kettlewell. Wasset Fell is between Bishopdale and Wasset- 

 dale. 



Between Wassetdale and Coverdale are the three summits of 

 Buckden Pike, Harlen Fell, and Penhill. 



Penhill, 1817 N., a prolongation of Harlen Fell, 1765 N., 

 as this is an extension from Buckden Pike, 2304 N., 2245 O.S., 

 is one of the finest of the summits visible from Wensleydale ; 

 the effect of its bold craggy head being heightened by the deep 

 valleys which on three sides surround it. Its elevation above 

 the Valley of the Yore is about 1400 feet. Buckden Pike (also 

 called Carn Fell, and West Sattronside), is, next to its neighbour 

 Great Whernside, the highest point of land on the east side of 

 the Wharfe. It is separated from the last-named hill by the 

 deeply excavated pass which leads from Kettlewell to Coverdale. 



* This combination of words, each signifying ' lake,' occurs again at Sea- 

 mer, near Scarborough.
