Restricted Access

New safety signing has been erected indicating the site owners (Hickley & Bosworth Borough Council) now prohibit a number of recreational activities in the quarry - including climbing and abseiling. Despite an approach to the Council by the BMC to discuss their concerns and the unfortunate situation of public land having restricted access in an area where it provides an important public amenity, no contact from the Council has been forthcoming. If climbers do decide to access the crag and are asked to leave by the landower, please be polite and pack away as soon as is safely possible. 

Be careful of break-ins at the car park.

9m. Start 5m left of the rockfall scar. climb slightly rightwards over overhangs to the left hand end of an obvious ledge at half height and below the notch of Wall Climb. Now, step boldly up round to the left onto a hanging slab (crux) and finish direct.
