In reply to henwardian:
Reasons why you are a pillock:
1) even in the sunny uplands of Scotland (Where I assume you are referring to) you don't have access to people's gardens and I'm pretty exactly the same situation as we have in this case would apply.
2) although I suppose I'm glad someone gets some enjoyment out of this I care a lot for this piece of rock, I've spent many a sunny afternoon sitting underneath it with nothing but the screams of the nearby theme park for company, spent a lot of effort on projects there, some of which I'll never finish and god knows how long doing litter picks, tutting at piles of abandndoned finger tape, brushing overchalked holds removing invasive plant species ect. I am genuinely gutted about this especially, as unlike some other recent local bans the landowner seems to be a good guy who cares about the local environment and has genuinely engaged with climbers so your sneering comes across as pretty unpleasant.
