It is located in the Uldale Fells, about 5 km or 3 miles north of Skiddaw, near the larger fell of Great Cockup 1 km to the east, and has an elevation of 395 metres. Another hill called plain Cockup is about 2 km to the south. InformationLittle Cockup is located near the Great Cockup fell and was given its name of Little Cockup to distinguish it from Great Cockup. The name "Cockup" derives from the words in the Old English language for a secluded valley and Black Grouse.[1] Little Cockup has an elevation of {{Convert|395|m}}.[2] Little Cockup is smaller and lower than Great Cockup, which is {{Convert|526|m}}.[3] Little Cockup is often used by fellwalkers and hikers as part of one of several routes to ascend Great Cockup. There is no path up Little Cockup, and walkers have to go through patches of brambles on the way up. There is a circular stone ledge near the top of the fell and on the summit is a cairn with common heather growing around it. Great Cockup and Bassenthwaite Lake can be seen from its summit.[3][4] In popular cultureLittle Cockup has been referred to in an edition of Punch magazine[5] and was also mentioned in Alfred Wainwright's walking guidebooks about the Lake District alongside Great Cockup.[4] In 2011, Business Weekly published a news story suggesting that the Government of the United Kingdom's Department for Business, Innovation and Skills' Technology Strategy Board was considering investing in nearby towns and the area around Little Cockup.[6] Because the name of Little Cockup is a double entendre,[7] it is often included on lists of rude-sounding place names.[8] References1. ^{{Cite book|last=Whaley|first=Diana|title=A Dictionary of Lake District Place-names|location=Nottingham|publisher=English Place-Name Society|year=2006|pages=lx,423 p.78|ISBN=0904889726}} 2. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.themountainguide.co.uk/england/little-cockup.htm |title=Little Cockup |publisher=The Mountain Guide |date= |accessdate=2014-02-23}} 3. ^1 {{Cite book|last=Richards|first=Mark|title=The Northern Fells|location=|publisher=Cicerone Press Limited|year=2012|page=124|ISBN=1849657823}} 4. ^1 {{Cite book|last=Nutall|first=John|title=The Tarns of Lakeland|volume=2|publisher=Cicerone Press Limited|year=1995|page=15|ISBN=1849657823}} 5. ^{{cite journal| author =Mark Lemon | title = Film Guide| url = | journal = Punch| location = London| page = 250| volume = 279| publisher = Punch | year = 1985| accessdate = }} 6. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.businessweekly.co.uk/blog/cambridge-today-tony-quested/12991-what-if-the-cambridge-brains-stop-throbbing |title=What if the Cambridge brains stop throbbing? |publisher=Business Weekly |date=2011-11-02 |accessdate=2014-02-23}} 7. ^{{cite web|url=http://greatbritishmag.co.uk/coffee-break/dull-but-never-boring/?uid=9012 |title=Dull, but never boring |publisher=Great British Mag |date= |accessdate=2014-02-23}} 8. ^{{cite web|author= |url=https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/worldnews/1497131/Location-Location-Location.html |title=Location Location Location |publisher=Daily Telegraph |date=2005-08-28 |accessdate=2014-02-23}} 1 : Fells of the Lake District |
