Permission is no longer required to climb here. However, access still relies on a permissive agreement for passage through the grazing land. Please use the stiles and ensure all gates are closed.
There is a permanent dog ban in place under CRoW at the crag and the surrounding land.
Dates: 20 April to 20 June
Reason: Nesting Birds
Kestrels regularly nest on Eastby Buttress - if the birds are present avoid routes on this buttress until the young have fledged (usually by the end of June).
Rockfax Description
18m. A cracking climb, mild but with a bold feel. Gain the hanging rib from the right and balance up it. The lower section is a bit scary but the interest is well maintained. © Rockfax
