Restricted Access

The landowners have expressed legitimate safety concerns with climbing in the gorge. The site contains a popular public road and the potential for passers-by to be hit by falling/dislodged rock is obvious. If you wish to climb or scramble in the pass, BMC advice is to limit visits to either very early or late in the day, midweek.

50m. The ridge at the lower end of the pass on same side of road as Speedwell Cavern. Steep start, a very steep rocky section avoided by a deviation right then back left to follow the exposed crest.

unknown/nick canute, solo 1999.
