Restricted Access
November 2017 update
Reports of climbers being told to leave by security staff from the quarry and stating that they will be removing the bolts form this venue. BMC are investigating.
The owners of the site (Cemex Ltd) have approached the BMC to advise that this crag is within and forms part of a larger site that is an active and working quarry. They are legally bound by the Quarries Regulations 1999 to ensure that they take appropriate steps to prevent public access to the site, and have requested the BMC to inform climbers that climbing is not allowed at this site.
2020 update
Climbers have been heavily using this crag (especially during lockdown) with no issues. If approached by Cemtex Staff, please comply with their request if asked to leave and get in touch with your local access rep.

Show βeta
βeta: A couple of key undercuts have now broken on this line. Taking this direct is now far more difficult. It is still climbable by using a small crimp just up and left of big flat undercut, pulling into undercut with right hand, building feet then firing left hand to a hold on the prow. Probably hard 7b+ now | ||
