Sale Fell is a Lake District fell of 359 m in Cumberland. All four of its nearest neighbours are higher, up to Lord's Seat at 552 m.
Its key col leads to Lord's Seat, not to its nearest higher summit, Ling Fell. Only six of the 242 hills profiled in England are lower. All four of its nearest neighbours lie to the south, so it stands at the northern edge of its group. It is the lowest of the 31 register hills in the Lake District N region, where Skiddaw is highest. It is 276.3 m below the average height of the 114 register hills in Cumberland. The highest point is recorded as outcrop, not a cairn. It falls on two OS 1:50,000 sheets, 89 and 90.
