Revision as of 13:54, 28 February 2018

A County top is the highest point of a county. A county top need not be in the heart of a county; many indeed are at the edges, where the county boundary runs over a ridge or watershed. A few are on the border of the county and may be the top of two counties.

The highest of them all is the magnificent Ben Nevis, the highest ground in the British Isles and consequently the county top of Inverness-shire, and the lowest Bush Ground in Huntingdonshire, a county not known for hills.

County tops of the United Kingdom

Ben Nevis, Inverness-shire, highest point in the United Kingdom

Footnotes and references

  1. ↑ Lancashire's county top is believed to be the Old Man of Coniston but a claim is also made for nearby Swirl How, which is a few feet lower or higher, depending on exact measurement and perhaps on whether the cairn at the summit of the Old Man is included.
  2. ↑ The very top of Ebrington Hill is in Gloucestershire; Warwickshire's highest point is at the county border some yards to the SE
  3. ↑ West Lothian: possibly The Knock at 1,023 feet
