About

Shillhope Law is a mountain in lowlands. (Hill in Northumberland, England.) According to Wikipedia: "Shillhope Law is a hill in the southern Cheviots, a range of hills in Northumberland, England. Shillhope Law is a relatively unremarkable member of this group; in common with its neighbours it has a small summit and steep, grassy sides falling to deeply incised valleys on either side. However, unlike its neighbours, the ridge connecting Shillhope Law to the higher dome of The Cheviot to the north is bisected by a low col at 343 metres (1,125 ft) m, giving it enough relative height to be a Marilyn. It has an elevation of 501 m (1,644 ft) and a prominence of 158 m (518 ft)."
