In reply to Rob Dyer, BMC:
I've noticed there is some small amount movement in many of the bolts at harrisons, I don't know if this is a problem or not, I always reason they are backed up and are large deepset bolts in the rock so probably fine.
To set up the ropes properly so they don't rub against the rock it's fairly normal to have to lead above the biner the rope is passing through (sometimes by a few meters! but normally on easy ground), so it's fairly obvious that forces greater than those that could be expected by a typical top rope set up could be generated on southern sandstone.
