Ill Crag - Claims As A Fell

Claims As A Fell

Ill Crag is one of very few fells in the lake District not to be given a separate chapter in Alfred Wainwright's celebrated guide books, although Wainwright does give it a page in the Scafell Pike chapter. It therefore does not qualify as a Wainwright, though it is a Hewitt and also a Nuttall.

Famous quotes containing the words claims and/or fell:

    “The purpose of education is to keep a culture from being drowned in senseless repetitions, each of which claims to offer a new insight.”
    —Harold Rosenberg (1906–1978)

    “It’s a queer sensation, this secret belief that one stands on the brink of the world’s greatest catastrophe. For it means the fall of Western Europe, as it fell in the fourth century. It recurs to me every November, and culminates every December. I have to get over it as I can, and hide, for fear of being sent to an asylum.”
    —Henry Brooks Adams (1838–1918)
