Notes
A prominent hill in the Hope Valley, west of Castleton in the Peak District National Park. Rising to 517 metres, Mam Tor is crowned by the remains of a late Bronze Age and Iron Age hillfort and is renowned for the frequent landslips on its eastern face, which have earned it the nickname"Shivering Mountain". It is one of the most popular walking destinations in the Peak District and forms part of the Great Ridge.
