From the Wikipedia article
Crosby Ravensworth Fell is a Site of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI) in Cumbria, England. It is within Yorkshire Dales National Park and is located 2km southwest of the village of Crosby Ravensworth and adjacent to the hamlet of Oddendale. This area is protected because of the lowland heath habitat and limestone pavement habitats present. The M6 motorway passes through this protected area. Part of the heathland on Crosby Ravensworth Fell SSSI is common land. The protected area includes Seal Howe. The long-distance footpath called the coast to coast walk crosses this protected area. Crosby Ravensworth Fell SSSI is adjacent to another protected area called Crosby Gill SSSI and so forms part of a wider area of nature protection.
