The Dodds

A Dodd is a hill between 500m and 599m high with a drop of at least 30 metres all round. The name Dodds was originally derived from DOnald Deweys, Deweys and Scotland. The Irish and Manx Dodds were added in 2020 and are listed separately on this website.

A Subdodd is a hill which just fails (by up to 10m) to qualify on the drop rule, i.e. between 500m and 599m with 20-29m drop.

(Dodds appear as Class=5 on this website, and Subdodds as Class=s5).

Hills between 400 and 499m with 30m drop appear as class=4. Those between 490 and 499m with 20-29m drop are also included as class=s4..

My Progress

I have completed 0 (0%) of 1338 Dodds of Britain [Map*]: 0 (0%) of 949 Scottish Dodds [Map*]; 0 (0%) of 168 English Dodds [Map*]; 0 (0%) of 226 Welsh Dodds [Map*]; 0 (0%) of 5 Manx Dodds [Map*]; 0 (0%) of 187 Irish Dodds [Map*]

The discrepancy in the totals is due to 5 hills on the Scotland/England border which are included in the totals for both countries.
