Crag features
Four dihedral cracks by each stair set on either side of Chiswick bridge. At first they appear to be direct mirrors of each other, but there are subtle changes in crack width and surface texture that make each crack require slightly different body positioning.
Concrete surface offers little in the way of grip so relies on body tension.
Boulder pads are a must, as the only way back down is either to jump or attempt an absurd and treacherous highball.
Each of the boulder routes top out at the first ornamental ridge (about 4m high).
It could be possible to climb all the way up and finish by climbing onto the top of the bridge itself, but I'll leave this for far braver climbers... it could be possible to create an anchor from the balustrades for roped climbing.
Approach notes
Can be found between the bottom of the stairs and concrete arch at each corner of the bridge, offering 4 different climbing spots.
No Access Issues
Public access and comfortably out the way of the tow-path and stairs.
