Notes
I've been visiting this wall for nearly a year and I've seen it expand, it now has a new wall at the rear of the church, and a new bouldering room upstairs. Great café and a Cotswold shop inside! just had changing rooms made. Great routes. Rubber flooring and fantastic architecture (if you like that stuff)

USER FEEDBACK Login as Existing User to add your comments have loved this place since it opened. Looks great, staff are lovely but best off all the climbing is superb. Only thing I would like to see change is teh Yellow slab at the bottom have a repaint with some gripy pain added as its dam slippy at the mo! innesmac - 12/Dec/12 Just checked out this wall today and its GREAT! I only bouldered but eyed up the leading and it looks nice and long and varous grades. The bouldering is very good. Nice flowing problems. Like how there's an emphasis on circuit/stamina trg too. The wee circuit room upstairs at about 45 degrees is diamond. Great to get strong on and work the core..I'll defo be back!!! jules699 - 11/Oct/12 its me agen!!!! sorry but i cant get over how good this place is. the routes are changed very often... michael grimshaw - 09/Mar/06 this wall is a great wall. the holds are changed every month so you get different routs every time. the staff are chatty and you can have a joke with them. michael grimshaw - 22/Nov/05 This is a fantastic place. Another wall has recently been added against the far end(under the round glass window) and the routes are changed reasonably often. The 'team' there are both helpful and friendly. The ability to have a coffe and sandwich between climbs makes for a great day 'in'/evening on the wall. Ewen Campbell - 08/Oct/05
