The Knott

The ridge from Rampsgill Head travels north westerly, with The Knott protruding from the south west side.

The small lake of Hayeswater lies below The Knott on this flank, at the bottom of steep scree slopes.

Viewed from this side The Knott is an impressive conical summit, although its inferiority to Rampsgill Head is apparent from other directions.

The north eastern side of the ridge falls over rough ground to the head of Rampsgill in the Martindale catchment.

After passing Sulphury Gill, the ridge continuing from The Knott turns northward to the rounded dome of Rest Dodd.
