The Simms

A Simm is a hill in England, Wales or Scotland over 600m high with a drop of at least 30 metres all round.  Simm is an acronym for Six-hundred Metre Mountain.  The Irish and Isle of Man Simms are also listed on this website.

A Subsimm is a hill which just fails (by up to 10m) to qualify on the drop rule, i.e. over 600m with 20-29m drop.
