Restricted Access

The National Trust (who own the Dewerstone and surrounding land) are happy to allow climbing access but ask that abseil descent from trees is not used to prevent damage to the trees.

Seasonal Restrictions

Dates: 21 April to 30 June

Reason: Nesting Birds

Kestrels are nesting on Upper Raven Buttress - it is worth avoiding these rarely visited climbs while the birds are nesting and it is likely that the young will have fledged by the end of June.
There is groundfall potential from the crux; careful protection and a nifty
second useful. Harder when greasy.
1) 6a. Climb the gymnastic wall to the roof. From here strength, stamina and technique will lead you over the roof to reach the gruesome, slanting crack, and a pull over onto the slab. Lack of these will bring you back down to earth.
