 Starling Dodd stands on the northern branch, dividing Buttermere and Ennerdale.The Buttermere–Ennerdale watershed runs north-west from Haystacks, climbing over High Crag, High Stile and Red Pike, the three fells of Buttermere Edge.The ridge then loses its craggy character, swinging westerly over the grassy Starling Dodd to its terminus at Great Borne.
