List of mountains of the British Isles by height (2501–3000)

This article lists mountains in the British Isles with summits between 2501 and 3000 feet (762.3 and 914.4 metres) in height. It is important to note that height is only one criterion used to classify a mountain; other factors such as prominence (the vertical distance between a summit and the lowest contour line encircling it and no higher summit) and isolation (the distance to the nearest higher summit) are also considered. This list prioritizes height, and therefore may include features that others might classify as subsidiary summits or hills rather than independent mountains.

The British Isles encompasses Great Britain (England, Scotland, and Wales), the island of Ireland (Northern Ireland and the Republic of Ireland), and numerous smaller islands. Mountains on all of these islands that meet the stated height criteria are included.

Data for mountain heights and locations is primarily sourced from Ordnance Survey maps for Great Britain and Ordnance Survey Ireland maps for Ireland. The accuracy of these figures is generally accepted, although slight variations may exist between different map editions or survey methods.

Mountains are listed in descending order of height, along with their location (country within the British Isles), grid reference (for locating the mountain on a map), and any relevant notes, such as alternative names, significant features, or prominent adjacent peaks.

This list aims to be comprehensive, but it is possible that some mountains meeting the criteria have been overlooked. Regular updates are anticipated as new data becomes available or errors are identified. The list should not be considered definitive and is intended for informational purposes only. Users requiring precise navigational information should consult official maps and guides.
