Over the past four years we have been in contact with the contractors doing the quarrying. The work in the main quarry is now slowly winding down. We will soon be starting discussions with the contractors about access and possible landscaping once they have finished extraction work. Mountaineering Scotland, local climbers and The Scottish Dry-Tooling Club will be involved as these discussions progress. We are not clear yet on the timescales of these discussions, but it is hoped that 2022 could see a return to climbing at Newtyle. In the meantime, it is imperative that, as a climbing community, we continue to understand that the quarry is a working quarry site, and access rights do not apply here. PLEASE CONTINUE TO RESPECT THE CURRENT APPROACH: “DO NOT CLIMB ANYWHERE AT NEWTYLE”. Thanks for your support in getting this far….
