Access notes
Since the vandalism Feb 2013 (http://www.ukclimbing.com/news/item.php?id=67831) please be vary weary of the boulder problems with chipping - The exposed core in incredibly soft. It's going to take years to recover.

Limited roadside parking below the crag on the B5056 (SK 228618). Follow the track leading to the left of the Tor. To maintain access you MUST NOT take a short cut through the farm or across the field. A stile opposite Robin Hood's Stride allows access to the wood left of the Tor.
