Restricted Access

Ramshaw is home to some of the hardest routes in Britain and most of them are graded HVS - a Yosemite style tape job is the only access requirement! There are no access problems at the main crag. However, do not try and climb at Lady Rock (the buttresses on the far right above the farm house), these are not on access land, the owner lives very close and has been confrontational.

12m.

Rockfax Description
12m. Climb the pleasant arete and the crack just to the left, to a chimney. Bridge this and exit right for the easiest descent. © Rockfax

βeta: Fantastic route but you need to be careful with the exit - you can take the slightly grovelly path through the gap below the top or take the awesome, airy bridging finish to the top. If you take the latter option exit right not left as descending off the left block is a wee bit tricky to say the least.
