In reply to dinodinosaur:
Twenty years ago at 8pm on a Friday evening, it'd be rammed full of people. On one such occaission, some dipstick decided not to clip a bolt, fell off and played skittles. The HSE came in and and the crowds were turned away. Those were the glory days.
I stopped going after it was taken over by TCA. Too many routes jammed in together, route setting not to my taste. Times change. They've even removed the tribute to Rob Parker.
But the geometry of St. Werburgs was brilliant. I loved the routes that went up corners, or across, or around aretes.
