One of the more convenient and quick-drying crags in the area. Good sport climbing as well as a reasonable selection of trad routes. The popular routes tend to be polished, especially the starts of those on the Lower Lift.
Whitebeams (a rare species of tree) grow on the crag and are an important feature of the SSSI. Please do not cut any trees on or around the crag without gaining permision first as this could result in access issues in future. If you want to carry out cleaning which involves trees, please contact the BMC access team first through access@thebmc.co.uk.
Dates: 15 February to 15 June
Reason: Nesting Birds
There is a tawny owl nesting on "It's Over for Jehovah". Avoide all routes between "Head full of hedda" and "What you think"

βeta: Stay right on the pillar at the start, then once you have mounted it step left and go up until your hands are level with the large flake crack out left. Traverse left onto the flack crack and climb by bridging any laybacks to the top. Avoid the sloping hold near the top of the flake in favour of the sharp pointed one at the top. | ||
