Stanhope Ashes Quarry West. 5A to 7A+ so far. SE facing limestone quarry. Easy access and superb rock.

This is huge, with 11 routes already, massive potential, just a lack of bolts holding back further development for now. All contributions gratefully received

Nice effort.

Tip - If you type the crag in the Insert crag link box then it links through to the UKC listing.

Do those of us who've already bought the guide qualify for free supplements?

In reply to Lemony:

The guide is nothing to do with me I'm afraid.... better to get back in touch with Richard.

Had a great day down at the Dene yesterday, thanks to the team who've bolted all the routes. Had some fun in the 5-6a range and and a couple of the lads enjoyed working the routes around 7a. All to the soundtrack of woodpecker, warbler and curlew. Only going to get better with a bit more traffic and a bit more brushing

It's quite the sun trap too, there were some pink shoulders on display at the end of the day.

Spotted a slow worm on the walk along to Barney's from Bamm Bamm so tread carefully!
