I had Lank Rigg in mind, but if correct I'll have to scrabble around and scan some ancient pic.

I think it is Caw Fell? with Sellafield in the far distance on the left?

That's right Tim. Hutchy was very close but it is indeed Caw Fell, with Haycock behind and Sellafield in the distance.

No guesses so here is a clue -

Wainwright said this was “the first fell I saw at close quarters” (I think those were the words he used)
