 The fell has a series of stone-built grouse butts west of the summit, some of which have been dismantled leaving just the foundations in the ground; they can confuse walkers as to their original purpose.The lower southern slope of the fell has a large, isolated boulder which is marked on large-scale maps; this is thought to be an erratic left by a retreating glacier.The fell has also yielded some rare fossils with unusual forms of dendroid graptolites being found on the slopes.
