High Street rises to 829 m (2,720 ft) in the Far Eastern Fells, between Haweswater and the Troutbeck valley. With 374 m of prominence it is a Marilyn as well as a Wainwright, Hewitt, Nuttall and Birkett. The summit is a long, flat whaleback crossed by a stone wall, with a trig pillar beside it. The Roman road that gives the fell its name runs along the western side. Mardale Ill Bell lies 1.2 km to the south-east and Thornthwaite Crag 1.5 km to the south-west.
The finest route climbs from Mardale Head over Rough Crag and Long Stile, a rocky ridge between Riggindale and Blea Water. From Hartsop, you climb past Hayeswater to the ridge. From Troutbeck, a long walk up the valley leads to Thornthwaite Crag and on to the summit.
The flat summit gives few landmarks in mist. Follow the wall to find the trig point.
