Seasonal Restrictions

Historically there has been a signed restriction for nesting peregrines covering the whole crag.

Rockfax Description
Brilliant but testing crack climbing that has plenty of gear. The initial thin crack opens up and then shuts down again, forcing a difficult step out right. Thereafter tackle the thinner cracks to easier ground at the diagonal break. © Rockfax

βeta: E1 5b, I think. Quite technical until the niche; not just 1 hard move. Therefore, even though it's well protectable, I feel it deserves the E point. Also, it's quite unique within the Lakes and probably worth *** in my view: there aren't loads of technical granite crack climbs in the area!
