The English Deweys

This page shows all the English Deweys sorted in alphabetical order. I've customised the list based on my visits, showing the first time I climbed each hill, and a total number of ascents.

The Deweys are hills in England, Wales and the Isle of Man at least 500m high and below 609.6m with a drop of at least 30m on all sides. Equivalent lists in other geographical areas are the Donald Deweys in the Scottish Lowlands, the Highland Fives in the Scottish Highlands, and the Myrddyn Deweys in Ireland.
