Dates: 1 March to 30 June
Reason: Nesting Birds
There are no applied bird restriction along the Wallsend cliff at present, (2022) However due to it's more isolated nature and available nesting ledges, it is often populated with breeding pairs of seabird through the season. As well as a Ravens nest in the Bigger Peace area.
Be sensible and avoid any routes close to nesting birds and advise others of nests, to leave them in peace. They will all be gone by mid July.

βeta: Rock eroded from bolts but all seemed sound, make your own mind up on this. Some loose rock at the start so clipstick the second bolt. Surface of the rock higher up is blowing and easily broken from smears etc (3mm thick flakes sort of thing) so belayer beware | βeta? | |

βeta: Great climbing on good rock. Very thoughtful climbing. Perhaps not hard for 7a+, but it is harder than many 7a's, so I think 7a+ is right | βeta? | |

βeta: This route has some excellent moves in the middle section between very good holds. It's easy for 7a+ maybe more like 7a or even 6c+. Well worth doing but not 3*. | βeta? | |
