2 new guides up on the Kirklees Climbing website:

Lindley Moor Edge - http://www.kirkleesclimbing.co.uk/lindley_moor_edge
&
Honley Quarry - http://www.kirkleesclimbing.co.uk/honley_quarry

There are a combination of routes and boulder problems at both venues.
Just on the website at the moment, I should be finished the download guides in a couple of weeks.

Honley Quarry. This site has been used way before Simon Pantin added his routes (in 1980s?). It was used by members of the Huddersfield Pheonix from at least the 60s and no doubt before this and by other locals I guess. A lot of pegging practice went on here (in the fashion of the day). Simons routes were in some cases improvements on partly aided lines that had been done.

In reply to David Smith:

I suspect the documentation for that is a bit thin on the ground though

In reply to schloosh:
RHR 1 takes the middle of the wall on flakes, left of the steep crack (as currently incorrectly indicated in your topo) it used to be HS. The YMC star ratings on routes might be a useful addition for those popping in for a look. It's a lovely esoteric venue with some great year round bouldering in the lower grades and the best routes are well worth a visit and all just a few minutes off the M62.
