Does anyone have any info on it? I presume the location on the map is correct? Just outside Lydbrook? In the woods up near The Pludds...

Also the Rockfax description says there are 10 routes but on UKC there is only 1 logged. Is there any topo with the routes out there? If not (and I find the crag), I'll be happy to make one.

I just don't want to step on any toes when updating the UKC database you see.

Cheers

Its not where it says it is on the map. Its at Symonds Yat crag. Far southern end.

Aha! Thought the location might be way out.

Is that the cave not far from Joyces Route (crackline) etc? Or a recently uncovered one do you know?

So much info on these climbing areas but the locations and access are often lacking!

Its the caves either side of (funnily enough!) the route The Pylon King. The lip traverse is the cave to the right. Not sure if anything else has been done there since the guidebook.

That's great, thanks for that! Will take a look and update the crag info.

The current pin on the UKC map for for the cave leads to a forest shelter made out of sticks, in amongst some knarly mountain bike trails FYI, not sure if that was intentional or just a fluke 😂
