Restricted Access

No access problems. The area is part of the Eastern Edges SSSI designated for its assemblage of breeding birds - please make sure dogs are under control to protect birds and sheep: the grazier has reported losses.

Seasonal Restrictions

Reason: Nesting Birds

Ring ouzel nest sites change quickly and frequently as they often have several broods each year with different nest sites for each brood. On site signage will be up around any of the nest sites where climbing may impact on the birds and this is always up to date and accurate. 

10m.

Rockfax Description
The fierce thin crack is ultimately unsatisfying. Hard if done direct and a cop-out if not. Keep left for the best hidden holds. © Rockfax

βeta: The rattly hold is now completely loose. Don't grab it and expect it to hold.

βeta: Short lived, but nice, monkey-up-a-stick climbing. The position is spoilt by the gully.

βeta: It's very hard not to swing around the corner. In any case, the route description in the definitive BMC guide would suggest that you are not expected to go directly up the crack.

βeta: Desperate if done direct, and pointless if you sneak round the corner.
