Co-ordinate problem

[edit]

The grid ref from Anemobot2 was out of range of the British grid system, but I don't have a map here. I've tried to correct it by trial & error, but it was a silly thing to attempt! Could someone with a map please enter the accurate summit, a few metres North-West of my attempt. Thanks. Dbfirs 21:44, 28 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Fixed. --Stemonitis 09:14, 29 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Name of this fell

[edit]

I have tried for many years to discover an older name for this fell. Almost all geographical features in Mallerstang and many of the surrounding areas have Norse names, including many features of Wild Boar fell itself, such as Dolphinsty, and The Nab. (It may be significant that both the gods Freyr and his sister Freya rode on wild boars)? If anyone has any evidence of its Norse name, I would be very grateful to see a comment here.
