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.

The overhanging crack of the Alex of gowla buttress short but sweet super good gear pure fun 3 stars however a rock fall some years back has reduced the grade made it easier and not as good still worthwhile but think less stars and top grade hvs

βeta: This route is located approximately 8 foot to the right of hopes and fears on a small buttress to the right of Indian buttress It takes a slabby groove before entering a overhanging chimney groove Word of warning this felt quite unstable with lots of loose rock Would be serious and appropriate for an extreme grade either e1/2
