In reply to HikeandClimb:
I have been to Fairhead once. After a bit of ill-advised mucking around on the Small Crag, I headed to the Prow. The majority of stuff is too hard for me - I did Hell's Kitchen but wouldn't want to throw myself at the E1s too casually - but I would still easily consider it the best straight-up climbing crag I have ever been to. The multipitch routes felt more like (massively) overgrown single pitches to me rather than a multipitch route, but then maybe that's because I'm used to meandering mountain multipitches rather than 40-70m of dead straight up.
If it was south of Sheffield instead rather than stuck out on the N Ireland coast, it might very well be the most popular crag in the UK...
(actually it might only be the most popular crag at E1 and above, due to the relative paucity of sub-HVS routes)
