Birks

About Birks

Birks stands at a height of 622 m (2,041 ft) above sea level with a prominence of 19 m (62 ft). Although it is separately listed as a Nuttall and a Wainwright, its parent peak is St Sunday Crag and it is really only little more than a slight hump on St Sunday Crag’s north eastern ridge. It is therefore not often climbed in its own right, but is usually summited when ascending or descending from that larger fell. The best aspect from the summit is over the lower stretch of Ullswater.
