Blake Fell is the highest hill in this group, the summit area being a long ridge running southwest along the "finger".

The ridge then dips slightly, the landscape changing from rock outcrop to grass, before the final ascent to Blake Fell.

Southward is the narrow grassy col of Fothergill Head, providing a much more tenuous link to Gavel Fell.

This is a steep sided fell, forested on the western flank and with sufficient prominence that it is only barely excluded from the list of Marilyns in its own right.

This is a reservoir sitting in the deep valley between Blake Fell and Knock Murton, a reed rimmed waterbody held back by a substantial dam at the western end.

The eastern face of Blake Fell flows either to Loweswater or to its outfall, ensuring that all of the drainage eventually runs to the River Derwent.

The rougher terrain of Carling Knott is an outcropping of the underlying Loweswater Formation, composed of greywacke sandstone turbidities.

[4] Knock Murton and Kelton Fell bear the scars of mining activity, having been the site of extensive haematite workings.
