Access Banned

The landowner does not permit climbing on this site and all details are recorded to preserve the historical record. This site has been the subject of a major rockfall in the past  when the back wall collapsed and whilst the front faces look OK, significant fissures behind them may make them seriously unstable. Following this large rockfall, a fence has been erected below the cliff to prevent public access. 

24m.

UKC Logbook Description
Crack system up the front of the big pillar which is hardest low down but still feels slightly daunting above. The first route done on these walls.
