Restricted Access
The rock varies in character from typically quarried on the lower tier through to more abrasive rock on the upper tier where blasting has uncovered large tracts of calcite-encrusted rock which almost feels like natural limestone. As with most quarries, extra vigilance needs to be exercised by both climber and belayer here given the blasting activity which has created potential for loose rock.
Don't swim in the bright blue toxic pool (as if you needed telling)!

Crack line just left of Did Romeo Play. Climbed placing trad gear on good sharp rock. VDiff/S maybe. Not sure if this is the line of Benvolio or if that is the wall next left to the crack. Not sure if this crack line has been claimed before either but it is very obvious so would be surprised if it hasn't.
