The crag is on private land and continued access depends on climbers maintaining our good relationship with the landowner, who runs his business from the lorry park in the quarry. Be friendly if you meet the owner or his employees and make sure you follow the new access route (details below) to avoid any problems.
Dates: 15 February to 31 May

A tiny groove and thin crack lead to the roof. Less good above, and beware the loose block. © Rockfax
UKC Logbook Description
Now well rebolted. Lower wall is good and technical, followed by a thoughtful move to the roof. The upper wall is pumpy to the top.

βeta: A great little route - worth a couple of stars for the line and the climbing. There are some friable holds, but don't think this detracts from the quality of the routes - despite the view. | βeta? | |

βeta: Well bolted now, so no heart flutter symbols. Definately worth stars and probably just Fr7a+. Has one of the more unlikely no hands rests on limestone just below the crux. | βeta? | |
