Access Banned
The owner of Bursting Stone Quarry has indicated that work is starting here again in 2024. Although the current access situation is being discussed, it is currently unresolved. Equipment was moved into the quarry in late-2023 with work due to start in 2024.
Therefore unfortunately there is NO ACCESS currently to this quarry for climbing.

Hands of Stone F7a+ 23m
Start below a prominent line of right-trending stepped overhangs. Easily up a short broken buttress to a ledge. Pull up into a small groove below the first overhang and go rightwards around this to reach a ledge. Up to a second roof and over this to good holds. Climb up leftwards to a slot below another overlap. Crux moves up left and over this to reach a thin ramp/flake then better holds lead to the lower offs.
