Bored now so I was thinking about where I'd rock climbed (not winter) in the UK. Starting from the north:

Strathy point (north coast of Scotland)
Melvich/Port Skerra
Foinaven
Caithness Sea cliffs
Stac Polaidh (sp?)
Reiff
Duntelchaig
Cummingstone
Skye
Cairngorms
Ben Nevis
Glen Nevis
Glen Coe
Chew Valley
Stanage
Hathersage
Gogarth
Llanberis slate
Lianberis pass
Harrisons
Baggy Point ( or somewhere on the N. coast of Devon)
Swanage

Some might be slightly out of sync.

Criteria is graded routes.

For winter I could include Ben Hope, Ben Klibreck, Dundonald, Craig Meggy(sp!), Anoch Mor, Ogwen (plus others on the rock list).

Hill walked all over Scotland, Wales and England but this doesn't count.

Northumberland
Some of the Scottish Islands
Galloway
Eden Valley
Scottish Lowland crags, though I have climbed at Dunkeld and Dumbarton, are they in the Lowlands?

I've been there but not climbed there. Have walked up the Priseli (spelling here is really speculative) hills though.

It's Preseli - my home hills, and my secondary school was right in the middle of them. Feels quite wild, not usually many people up there and lots of small rocky outcrops (hence why all the mountains are called Carn something) to boulder on. Probably where I learnt my desire to climb and put hands on rock for the first time!

I used to live in Maenclochog (spelling is again speculative)
