Restricted Access

No access problems. The area is part of the Eastern Edges SSSI designated for its assemblage of breeding birds - please make sure dogs are under control to protect birds and sheep: the grazier has reported losses.

Seasonal Restrictions

Reason: Nesting Birds

Ring ouzel nest sites change quickly and frequently as they often have several broods each year with different nest sites for each brood. On site signage will be up around any of the nest sites where climbing may impact on the birds and this is always up to date and accurate. 

10m.

Use shiny holds to climb to the edge of the overhang, step right to pass this and finish more easily up the fine slab - nice. © Rockfax

βeta: Horrendously polished start. Hadn't done it for a few years & it's got much worse in that time. Starting up the slightly steeper part of the slab a few feet right keeps the standard even & is much more fun

βeta: There is a good #3 wire to protect the most polished step up at the start, but as has been said already there's more than enough holds to avoid the really glass like ones: more of a worry in your head than in actually climbing it me- thinks.

βeta: Good route, start to the left of the polished start to make the slab a little more interesting

βeta: Wouldn't bother with ropes for this; it seemed unprotected to the crux and is a doddle thereafter (the top half is no harder than the mod next door).
