Yewbarrow - Lake District

Yewbarrow is a fell which lies immediately north of the head of Wast Water. It is 2000 ft high and in shape resembles the upturned hull of a boat or a barrow. Yewbarrow is on the left in the classic view of Great Gable and Wast Water. The name is derived from the past prevalence of yew trees on the fell and its "barrow" shape.
