THE FOLLOWING RESTRICTION DOES NOT APPLY TO ANY OF THE POPULAR ROUTES I.E. GREY KNOTTS FACE AND ALL ROUTES LEFT OF IT
The peregrines that nest on Gillercombe have normally nested well away from the climbing so no routes have been restricted. This year they obviously fancied a change of scene and have moved to set up home in a less convenient location. Consequently all the (neglected) routes on the Right Wall (i.e. right of the appropriately maned Peregrine Wall (2000 guidebook) are now restricted as is the scramble up the right side of the crag. This means that if your heart is set on doing Prudence (E8 6c) or Caution (E7 6b) you will need to wait to July!
