Wether Fell

[4] In their 1953 book Yorkshire Village, Marie Hartley and Joan Ingliby describe the view of Wether Fell from the north across Hawes as looking like "...the limbs and loins of a beast stretched full length filling the horizon.

[11] Several cairns are also to be found on the slopes of Wether Fell, some which date back as far as the Bronze Age.

[14] The northern edge of Wether Fell is recognised as a good place for hang gliding and paragliding when the weather conditions are right.

[18] The Wether Fell stone flags, typically used for footpaths through fields around Hawes, Hardraw, Gayle and Sedbusk.

[19] Coal was also mined from at least three locations on the steep western slope of Wether Fell, with the most notable being Storth Colliery.
