Yorkshire Grit crags liberated by CRoW Act

The CRoW Act goes live in region 4 (and 5) this weekend (28th May) meaning a number of crags in Yorkshire and Northumberland with historical access difficulties will now have an 'open access land' designation.
Yorkshire Gritstone crags with open access land now include places like Eastby, Sypeland (left) and all the Bardon Fell crags and boulders. Check the BMC link for a full list.

Think it was permisive access, as with a lot of the crags on Barden Fell/Moor. Never a hastle unless there was a high fire risk or the odd bit of grouse shooting.

I might even get to Brandith now, after trying for 3 years while I lived in Leeds. Good News.

Nice little crag, bit Ramshaw like but more isolated. Grit a bit like Kinder, coarser grained than most Yorkshire grit.
