There is a lay by with room for around 15 cars on woolley edge lane with a few small areas available on common lane. Please don't go messing around in the farmers field's behind the crag or there might be a repeat of the 1980's Greasing incident

Had a quick look after work and it has some potential for some decent bouldering, with plenty more problems than described on here. Will go back with a range of brushes next time! Could do with more traffic though...

Went there for a quick look after work and it seems to be, quite literally, a s*** tip! Not impressed. This was especially evident on the lower edge where people quite obviously park at the top and unload their boot straight over the crag edge. Out of sight out of mind eh!

surprsingly good venue for bouldering. Some of the routes felt high which added to the enjoyment.

A suprisingly good little venue. Someone has put a lot of work into cleaning it up and its well worth a visit for an hour if passing.
