St Sunday is a local name for St Dominic, though nobody's sure how the saint came to be linked to this fell. Its top is surprisingly flat and green, with a cairn on the highest point and another at the northern end looking straight down the length of Ullswater. Above Grisedale, a long wall of crag cut by gullies draws scramblers and climbers, and the Coast to Coast Walk now crosses the summit, so it's rarely quiet.
