Seals breed in Parliament House cave during the autumn months and climbers should take particular care not to disturb them during the time from late August to late October when the young seal pups can be eailsiy sepreated from their mothers with devastating consequences.

A large (huge!) rockfall occured at the back of Parliement House Cave in 2017 which affects some of the routes in the cave and further rockfalls are likley! 

4 pitches. No description has been contributed for this climb.

βeta: Pitch 2 is probably the best pitch on the route. It is described in the guidebook as starting up the righthand of 2 cracks, as for Return to Garthgog. However, a better start, at about the same standard, is to climb the left hand crack in its entirety. This gives an excellent pitch.
