Seasonal Restrictions

Dates: 1 March to 30 June

Reason: Nesting Birds

Kestrels nest on the crag but no formal restriction is in place as they are not Schedule 1 (legally protected) or locally rare birds. If they are in residence on the crag, please climb past their nest site as quickly as possible taking care not to cause any damage and limit disturbance.

30m. From the FRCC guide.
Far East Butress. This route starts at the bottom of the crag, just left of where a dry stone wall meets the crag.

Start on a grassy ledge. Step left onto the clean rib and climb it delicately to a small overlap. Pull directly over this, then a second overlap immediately above, to reach the top.
