I'm not at all sure if you can see Flodden Field, rather than Flodden itself, from Housedon Hill, but it's not quite in the Northumberland NP, which I thought it was...

Bingo! Housedon Hill it is. England's most northerly Marilyn. I was careful to say that it is the memorial to the battle you can see. You are right that the battlefield itself may not be visible.

Over to you.

Apologies for neglecting this, I was distracted elsewhere.

Which hill was I on in the mist?

Not one of the 214, but it is mentioned by Wainwright.
