Where did the prominence figure of c 12m come from? Pavey Ark is listed in John & Anne Nuttall's book "The Mountains of England and Wales" which means they believe it to have a prominence of at least 15m. I've changed it to read "c 15m".
- Since the "c." is basically an abbreviation for "±5 m", the two values need not be in conflict. Either way, the relative height is pretty small, but since the Nuttalls measured all the minuscule relative heights themselves, it's probably more accurate than something interpolated from the Ordnance Survey's 5 m contours, as I assume the "c. 12 m" to be. --Stemonitis 14:36, 4 February 2006 (UTC)
