We had a wander up to Beeston Tor today and found branches blocking the path and signs requesting climbers check the BMC site as nesting birds were a concern. As far as we could tell on various sites, the restrictions finished in June but the signs are still up. We did a route up the Thorn and noticed a pair of falcons nesting in the cave above so backed off and went to a different part of the crag to avoid disturbing them.
It's a bit out of the way and quite a drive out for most people going over there so we're just wondering what the current advice on there is? Thanks to all involved with the birds and access info.
