Nine Standards Rigg is the summit of Hartley Fell in the Pennine Hills of England. It lies near the boundary between Cumbria and North Yorkshire, a few miles south-east of Kirkby Stephen and approximately 770 yards outside the Yorkshire Dales National Park. The name is derived from a group of cairns, the Nine Standards, located near the summit.
