4 km from Cockley Beck, Cumbria, Great Britain

Windshelter and Cairn, Pike o' Blisco
Windshelter and Cairn, Pike o' Blisco
The small shelter looks like it has been made from stones pushed off the cairn. Summit cairns hereabouts are in a constant state of repair and disrepair as visitors push them over or rebuild them. Famously grumpy Mr. Wainwright was indignant when this one was demolished and climbed the fell in a huff to report 'the wreckers have got onto the fell tops'
