One of the more convenient and quick-drying crags in the area. Good sport climbing as well as a reasonable selection of trad routes. The popular routes tend to be polished, especially the starts of those on the Lower Lift.
Whitebeams (a rare species of tree) grow on the crag and are an important feature of the SSSI. Please do not cut any trees on or around the crag without gaining permision first as this could result in access issues in future. If you want to carry out cleaning which involves trees, please contact the BMC access team first through access@thebmc.co.uk.
Dates: 15 February to 15 June
Reason: Nesting Birds
There is a tawny owl nesting on "It's Over for Jehovah". Avoide all routes between "Head full of hedda" and "What you think"

βeta: Thought this would be just another eliminate, but was actually quite nice. Seemed more worth while than dogcycle and a more natural line. The bolts are not well placed though for going that far left though. Got the moves quite quickly on TR, will go back for the lead. Again seems low in the grade. Hard to grade something that is just 2 or 3 moves though and much easier for taller people. Could be 7b+ for shorter people though. | βeta? | |
