Walk Overview
The most simplest of Wainwright Outlying Fell walks from the free to use car park
at Cold Fell Gate near Calder Bridge. Not the most spectacular outlier you will visit
From the A595 through Egremont take the minor road that leads to High House
farm and then continue past the farm for about half a mile to arrive at a cattle
bridge and a car park capable of taking at least a dozen or so vehicles
Head back over the cattle grid to pick up a wide stoney track on the left
Almost immediately a narrow grassy path branches off right that gives
access to the open fell side
Its now just a case of aiming for the high ground. There is no right or wrong way
to approach this as it is featureless and pathless. Thankfully not boggy
After no more than 5 minutes a small wooded area comes into view. Aim for that
The summit cairn comes into view
And thats it !! - Sue, Ste and Spud at the summit of Cold Fell

Theres very little in the way of stimulating views (unless you like Nuclear Power stations)
the only notable one looking North towards Seatallan
