List of P600 mountains in the British Isles

This is a list of P600 mountains in Britain and Ireland by height. A P600 is defined as a mountain with a topographic prominence above 600 m (1,969 ft), regardless of elevation or any other merits ; this is a similar approach to that of the Marilyn, Simms, HuMP and TuMP British Isle mountain and hill classifications. By definition, P600s have a height above 600 m (1,969 ft), the requirement to be called a "mountain" in the British Isles. The "P" terminology is an international classification, along with P1500 Ultras. P600 and "Majors" are used interchangeably.

P600 mountains by height
British Isles mountain cartographer, Alan Dawson, developer of the Marilyns designation, labelled "Majors" as having a prominence of over , but no other criteria. Dawson's prominence threshold was the normal height threshold for a British Isles mountain, and 111 mountains met his definition. The current list has 120 mountains, although there is dispute as to whether Moel Siabod's prominence is above 600 metres (2,000 ft), or is in fact just below the threshold at 599.9 metres. These tables are therefore subject to being revised over time, and should not be amended or updated unless the entire DoBIH data is re-downloaded again. (‡) Would not have been eligible for Dawson's 2004 "imperial" list of 111 mountains with prominence over . (‡‡) Added since the 2006 "metric" list of 119 mountains with prominence over , based on updated surveys. ==Sub–Majors by height==
Sub–Majors by height
In 2006, mountain database publisher, Mark Trengove, added a list of seven "Sub–Majors" (to Dawson, Woodall, and de Ferranti's P600 "Majors"), which had a prominence of between , and which possibly could become P600s, or Majors, in the future due to any possible discovered "contour uncertainty, rounding error, or map error". Since 2006, one of Trengrove's Sub–Majors, Moel Siabod, was re–surveyed and shown to be a P600 "Major". The list below is the October 2018 DoBIH list of the six mountains with a prominence between in the British Isles. ==DoBIH codes==
DoBIH codes
The DoBIH uses the following codes for the various classifications of mountains and hills in the British Isles, which many of the above peaks also fall into: Prefixes • s sub • x deleted Suffixes • = twin ==See also==
