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.
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.

βeta: Not a difficult route, but I found no gear placements until quite high up, and relied on cams. | βeta? | |

βeta: Nice little route - shame the upper slab is so short. Agree that the gear is a bit thin and might be a bit unnerving for someone new to leading. | βeta? | |

βeta: gear? marginal nut popped out as I put my hand on a wet slimey hold, not much fun! Easy climbing, but tad scary if this is your first lead or its about your grade, smearing up the top scoop could scare the first time grit climber. | βeta? | |
