I "have" to go to GQ tomorrow and I'd like to know which is the least shitty part of the quarry to climb in if you'd be so kind.

I reckon you may be pleasantly surprised.

(or just go for ten minutes, then run away to Stoney)

We went down the far right end in search of easier routes.  The whole experience was pretty scary.   It seemed to be a mass of shattered rock.   Suggest you try the left hand side as you enter the quarry.   Have only been once though.   Others may have better info.

The first wall is great, the rest shouldn't be bolted

I remember the big arete on the left as you get to the main quarry entrance was fun, also enjoyed the sunshine wall at the back on the right Goddard's Quarry

I may have mentioned this before, but I always get a vicarious thrill when Goddard's Quarry get a mention, because the Goddard in question is a distant ancestor of mine on my mums side!

Hi Martin The Plantation is for you..couple of decent 6b's and Debrilliant is very good at 6c-ish  especially worthwhile late afternoon/early evening for the sunshine. Roadworks are currently making parking tricky.

There isn't "a least shitty part" Martin - just don't go...

Hi Paul, great, that looks "good". Much obliged.

In reply to roger whetton:

Gosh, coming from you that is very damning. However, I think The Doktor is unperturbable!

Some decent rock, some awful rock. If you find the former then you most likely won't have had a wasted journey. The first two big arete's on the left are my recommendations.
