雞公嶺 +572m [大羅天」與「雞公山」均由錦田鄧氏家族祖先所定名，即古藉記載的「大掛(挂)」及「小掛(挂)」。另外，主峰東面另有一峰，稱為「羅天頂」，海拔高度為585米，是整座山的最高點，但因其視線受主峰所阻，所以三角測量站設於572米高的主峰上。

Beacon Hill 畢架山古稱獅子嶺。清初朝廷頒遷界令，因海防而在山頂興建烽火台，開始改稱畢架山為煙墩山或煙墩嶺，但昔日土著因方音不同，訛傳為燕壇山；有人因畢架山曾舉烽火，稱大火山。二次大戰後，當局於畢架山山頂興建雷達站，以頂部三小峰並立，從側面觀之與古時放毛筆的筆架相似，故Beacon Hill中文轉用「筆架山」一名。現在很多人普遍都將其寫為畢架山。
