Restricted Access

Ramshaw is home to some of the hardest routes in Britain and most of them are graded HVS - a Yosemite style tape job is the only access requirement! There are no access problems at the main crag. However, do not try and climb at Lady Rock (the buttresses on the far right above the farm house), these are not on access land, the owner lives very close and has been confrontational.

8m.

Rockfax Description
8m. The leaning crack to the right of the prow is an uphill struggle all the way. Big fists and a positive approach will help. © Rockfax
