Restricted Access

Ramshaw is home to some of the hardest routes in Britain and most of them are graded HVS - a Yosemite style tape job is the only access requirement! There are no access problems at the main crag. However, do not try and climb at Lady Rock (the buttresses on the far right above the farm house), these are not on access land, the owner lives very close and has been confrontational.

8m.

8m. The right-hand crack is short, sharp and 'ard, with difficulties concentrated in passing the bulge at one third height. © Rockfax

βeta: This was my first E1 Lead in UK, it wasn't a good first choice as it ripped my hands to pieces and drained me. Still feels very tough.
