Seals breed in Parliament House cave during the autumn months and climbers should take particular care not to disturb them during the time from late August to late October when the young seal pups can be eailsiy sepreated from their mothers with devastating consequences.

A large (huge!) rockfall occured at the back of Parliement House Cave in 2017 which affects some of the routes in the cave and further rockfalls are likley!

Rockfax Description
A sustained pitch up the wall opposite the abseil. Start beneath the central crack. Climb the crack until forced left into another crack. Follow this to the imposing roof. Pull up and right into a right-trending groove. Move back left on friable flakes to a small foot ledge. Move back right to climb the arete, in a fine position, to arrive at a big belay on the arete. © Rockfax
