Lingmell is a fell in the English Lake District, standing above the village of Wasdale Head. It is an outlier on the north-west flank of Scafell Pike, England’s highest mountain.

==Topography== Although standing in the shadow of its taller parent, Lingmell is very much a separate entity. In the manner of many fells it displays two contrasting aspects. The southern and western slopes – although steep – are smooth and rounded, while the northern and eastern faces fall as crags directly from the summit. The northern crag drops for toward the valley floor, with a further of scree below.
