Not in the immediate area. From memory there are bolted routes at Warton Main near Carnforth, Humphrey Head on the opposite side of Morecambe Bay and of course, Chapel Head Scar.

Just the lower-offs. However, many of the routes with lower-offs at the traverse level (Onedin Line) do actually continue to the top although the rock quality isn't great. A new-ish bolt (only one as I recall) has been placed up there which makes topping out a bit more reasonable. It seemed about E1 5b using this and trad runners. You'd still have to botch up a belay on wooden fence posts which won't make the National Trust happy.
