Any recommendations for multi-pitch crags in eastern side of Peak or Yorkshire? Thinking of making a trip down from Scotland for some dry weather!!

You're not going to get really multipitch crags down this way, perhaps 50m split in 2 pitches at best. That said, take a look at high tor, wildcat, ravensdale and millstone for starters.

If you want to climb in the Peak or Yorkshire, multipitch is not a good criterion. There are some 2-pitch up-routes, but why not just go to the place with the best routes, best setting, best rock at your grade? Is belaying really the best bit?

> best setting

It genuinely took me a few seconds to realize what you meant by that...

Agree with your point, though.

Looks like we're swapping venues!! Stanage is the quickest drying and most impressive setting in the Peak, with classics at every grade. An essential destination. Almscliff is the Yorkshire Mecca and even quicker drying but be warned, the routes there feel hard. Because they are.

Neither offer multipitch however apart from the odd curiosity.
