Restricted Access

From Bellingham take the westerly minor road just after the bridge and opposite the cemetary. Follow this for 3 miles and turn up to High Cairpeth farm. Park on the verge just before the farm between the sheep pen and sheds. Let Mrs Johnson the farmer (friendly) know you are going up. No dogs.

Take the good track towards the cottage but branch off partway aiming for a gate on the skyline. Go through this and follow a vague track leftwards around the minor rocks, then after a few hundred yards branch right to the crag itself.

8m. Climb the arete to the right of July Fate to a position under the roof. Climb direct up through the roof to get established on the wall above. Tricky crux has teeth.
