The National Trust (who own the Dewerstone and surrounding land) are happy to allow climbing access but ask that abseil descent from trees is not used to prevent damage to the trees.
Dates: 21 April to 30 June
Reason: Nesting Birds
Kestrels are nesting on Upper Raven Buttress - it is worth avoiding these rarely visited climbs while the birds are nesting and it is likely that the young will have fledged by the end of June.
Rockfax Description
Do not attempt this in a tee shirt! Start at the base of the buttress and climb up into the hanging chimney. Wedge your way up to the top. A pitch that divides opinion. © Rockfax
UKC Logbook Description
Start just down the hill from tower crack by a broken tree, which was often used as a bit of aid & for sling protection, climb into the hanging chimney & continue to the top, can feel a bit insecure at this grade.
