Seals breed in Parliament House cave during the autumn months and climbers should take particular care not to disturb them during the time from late August to late October when the young seal pups can be eailsiy sepreated from their mothers with devastating consequences.

A large (huge!) rockfall occured at the back of Parliement House Cave in 2017 which affects some of the routes in the cave and further rockfalls are likley! 

55m, 2 pitches.

Rockfax Description
A tough pitch. Start 5m to the right of Imitator, below the centre of the wall. Move diagonally left across the wall on good holds, until you can move up into a thin crack-line. Head up this to reach easier terrain where Imitator crosses the wall. Move up to gain the left-hand of the two thin cracks, and follow it past a couple of overlaps until forced to move to the right-hand crack. Follow the crack to the top and belay on a small ledge. Scramble up to the path. © Rockfax
