Great Borne is a Lake District fell of 616 m in Cumberland. Its key col leads to High Stile, not to its nearest higher summit, Starling Dodd.

It shares its height of 616 m with Beinn na Gucaig and Leenaun Hill. Its drop of 113 m makes it a Hewitt but is short of the 150 m a Marilyn needs. The highest point is recorded as rock, not a cairn.
