The Outlying Fells of Lakeland is a 1974 book written by Alfred Wainwright dealing with hills in and around the Lake District of England. It differs from Wainwright's Pictorial Guides in that each of its 56 chapters describes a walk, sometimes taking in several summits, rather than a single fell. This has caused some confusion on the part of authors attempting to prepare a definitive list of peaks. The Outlying Fells do not form part of the 214 hills generally accepted as making up the Wainwrights, but they are included in Category 2B of the Hill Walkers' Register maintained by the Long Distance Walkers Association. The book The first edition was published in 1974 by The Westmorland Gazette. It was republished by Michael Joseph in 1992 () and a second edition, revised by Chris Jesty, was published by the Wainwright Society in 2020 (). The first edition is uniform with the seven volumes of Wainwright's Pictorial Guides, with a yellow band at head and foot of the dustjacket. The wording on the cover, in Wainwright's characteristic handwritten style, is: Below this, there is a pen sketch showing an elderly but sprightly walker approaching the summit of a small hill, and Wainwright's signature. Fells included The arrangement of chapters in the book is clockwise starting in the south east, with the first chapter devoted to Scout Scar, a walk starting at Kendal Town Hall. The list at the back of Wainwright's book contains 110 named fells and summits. Close inspection shows seven of them to refer to other hills in the list, while Newton Fell has two summits. Thus: Cartmel Fell is the same as Ravens Barrow (page 42). Hollow Moor is the summit of Green Quarter Fell (page 14). Hooker Crag is the summit of Muncaster fell (page 186). Newton Fell includes Newton Fell (North) and Newton Fell (South) (page 53). Potter Fell is the name given to the hill whose summits are Brunt Knotts and Ulgraves (page 8). Lord's Seat is the summit of Whitbarrow (page 36). Williamson's Monument is the same as High Knott (page 18). Woodland Fell is the name of the moor of which Yew Bank and Wool Knott are high points (page 102). The addition of the 12 nameless summits brings the number of Wainwright's Outlying Fells to 116. This is 14 more than the 102 hills listed in John M. Turner's New Combined Indexes
