Kirk Fell (partial)
Green Gable (partial)
Starling Dodd
High Stile
Red Pike (B)
Mellbreak
Haystacks
Fleetwith Pike (partial)
Low Fell
Rannerdale Knotts

I still think that might be Gavel Fell seen to the right of Great Bourne.

You said Wainwrights NE, and in my copy it's Eel Crag (Crag Hill on OS maps) plus a long explanation as to why. Not that I'm a pedant..... ;-)

Can I pretend I haven't heard (many) arguments on this discussion before? :-)

Seriously though, you're quite right - it does say Eel Crag in the books but strictly speaking Eel Crag is not the summit that Wainwright denotes, I think Birkett's interpretation is correct .... but whatever, I'll mark it as Eel Crag :-)

OK, just to close this out (I'm quite sure everyone is sick of it by now), the other Wainwright I think that is visible is the western flank of Brandreth. So:

Kirk Fell (partial)
Green Gable (partial)
Starling Dodd
High Stile
Red Pike (B)
Mellbreak
Haystacks
Fleetwith Pike (partial)
Low Fell
Rannerdale Knotts
Fellbarrow
Whiteless Pike
Wandope
Grasmoor
Pillar
Eel Crag (Crag Hill)
Great Bourne
High Crag
Robinson (partial)
Sail (partial)
Brandreth (partial)
[Gavel Fell]

The jury is out on Gavel Fell. Simon knows those fells and I trust his judgement, I'm just wondering if it can be visible as it's a bit shorter than Great Borne.

Also visible (anoraks only):

3rd Gill Head Man
High Snockrigg
Bowness Knot
Pillar Rock
Looking Stead
Great Round How
Bowness Knot
Brown How
Herdus
Darling Fell
Mellbreak North Top
Hatteringill Head
Loweswater Fell
Smithy Fell
Sourfoot Fell
