Crag features

Four boulders with little friction and lots of positivity, a bit like The Beatles in late '68. They include one slab for easy highballs. Most obvious and easiest lines taken (because they were sent in the sun, after a GnT) but, as always, almost infinte scope for eliminates. It's probably worth an hour or two if you are walking the SW coastal path or kayaking in the Sound and fancy a spot of lunch and a problem or two. I wouldn't travel here just for them. 

Approach notes

Access is tricky and is in progress. The best approach is by sea, to paddle or sail directly onto the beach just like a real commando. 

DO NOT try to access from the military fort at the Eastern end of the beach. Not only is it a much longer route, but the Fort is nebulous, intensley private and has many dead-ends and locked doors. It is also not worth trying to drop down from the coastal path, if you value your life. There is a field that drops down to near the boulders but it is owned by the Scouts and permission is likely needed. Will update as soon as I have found a safe and sound solution.
