The HuMPs
HuMPs are hills of any height with a drop of 100 metres or more on all sides The name HuMP stands for HUndred Metre Prominence. By definition, all Marilyns qualify as HuMPs (but not vice versa).
A subHuMP is a hill which just fails (by up to 10m) to qualify on the drop rule, i.e. drop of 90m to 99m on all sides.
(HuMPs appear as Class=Hu on this website, or Ma if also a Marilyn, and subHuMPs as Class=sHu).
