Fellshreppur, previously Sléttuhlíðarhreppur, was a hreppur, an old Icelandic municipality, in Skagafjörður County, Iceland, located on the east side of the fjord. It was named after the church site Fell in Sléttuhlíð.[1] There were two districts in the hreppur: Sléttuhlíð and Hrolleifsdalur,[2] the latter of which has long since been abandoned and become pasture land.[3]
