Restricted Access
Cheedale is a SSSI and SAC with a high level of legal protection under European law. Access for climbing is concessionary and can only be maintained if climber's continue to adhere to a number of conditions agreed with Derbyshire Wildlife Trust (who own the Southern bank of the river). These include:
- No access along the top of the dale beyond a corner formed by the wall and obvious new fence bounding the 3rd major gully east of Plum Buttress. Therefore, no access to Runyans Corner and Moving, Long, or Two-Tier Buttresses from above.
- No further bolted development on the small, vegetated, and obscure crags, which rim the dale.
- Do not leave in situ krabs or tape on bolt hangers.
- Parts of Nettle Buttress, Chee Tor East, and Dogs Dinner area are bolt free areas of outstanding appearance.
- Do not remove large swathes of ivy.

From kneebars on Monumental Armblaster, move left to a sika-ed crimp, then make powerful moves up and then left to gain a sika-ed boss. Move back right to finish with relative ease. © Rockfax
FA. Keith Sharples. Formerly the aid route with the somewhat comical name of 'The Slab'. 1994.

βeta: you definitely can't take this if you start off stones or a portable stool, Christ knows how this has become "accepted" ethics. starting with third pre-clipped also seems to be a trend! | βeta? | |
