Is it Fells in the Lake District.

Has this something to with the challenge of walking them all ?

Well you are almost there Ruth, but the 214 fells have a 'collective' name........ That name is what I am looking for ! !

The very man John. Alfred Wainwright, walked all the 214 fells and documented them in great detail and published many books on the Lakeland Fells. Over to you (or Ruth!!)

You take it John, I'm still on dodgy mobile broadband and I can't check in too often. I'm home Friday so normal service will resume from then.
Thanks.

Nice one John, I have a bit of a passion for lighthouses and I think I know this, but it would be unfair of me to play as my internet is so iffy that I can't promise to be back here full time until I'm home on Friday.

I'm sure someone else will give it a shot though Smile 

If it's still going on Friday I'll have a go then Wink

I thought you would get it straight away RuthSurprised. There is not a name that immediately springs to mind so I reckon it is one of the less well known ones.
