Small Shaw Height is a prominent hill located in the county of Lancashire, England. It is situated in the eastern part of the county, near the town of Haslingden. Despite its name, Small Shaw Height is not classified as a mountain, but rather a hill, as it stands at an elevation of 388 meters (1,273 feet) above sea level.

The hill is a part of the Pennine Range, which stretches across Northern England, and is known for its stunning scenic beauty. Small Shaw Height offers panoramic views of the surrounding countryside, including the nearby Rossendale Valley, which is renowned for its picturesque landscapes.

The hill is covered in heather and grass, giving it a rich green appearance throughout the year. It is a popular spot for outdoor enthusiasts and nature lovers, who often visit for hiking, walking, and birdwatching. Small Shaw Height is particularly attractive during the summer months when the hillside is adorned with colorful wildflowers.

The summit of Small Shaw Height provides breathtaking views, with landmarks such as the nearby Peel Tower visible in the distance. On clear days, it is possible to see as far as the neighboring counties of Greater Manchester and West Yorkshire.

Access to Small Shaw Height is relatively easy, with several footpaths and trails leading to the summit. The hill is well-maintained and offers a pleasant and peaceful escape from the hustle and bustle of nearby urban areas.
