USER ATTENTION

3 March 2023 update: Peregrines and other seabirds are either prospecting or nesting on this crag.

A temporary ban has been put in place by the National Trust covering the area of cliff between Tubby Head and Bawden Cliff, so includes all of the major route locations up to and including the America Buttress. Once the exact locations of any nests have been identified, restrictions may be lifted.

42m. The Skirmish Cliff. A very good route with a big feel to it.
1,4c, 10 metres From the sea ledges traverse right to the corner good nut belay,
2,4c 15 metres Climb the corner,a hard start but with very good protection,on good solid black rock to a good belay ledge near the corner.
3,4c 17 metres From the delay work your way up the slab on easy ground, then move back to the corner climb the over lap over poor rock, climb the grass to the belay stake,
