Restricted Access

The bouldering at Anston Stones Wood all takes place on land owned by Anston Parish Council. To preserve the good relationship that climbers have with the Parish Council, The British Mountaineering Council have agreed the following guidelines which we ask all climbers to adhere to:

  • Stick to existing footpaths and firm ground, avoid trampling on vegetation
  • Pick up any litter you come across
  • Stay off the railway line
  • Climb only on areas that have already been developed (i.e. Woody’s Rock, the Wave area, Rocky Valley, Hidden Wall, Apprentice Wall, Dukes Wall, Through Post, and Frodo buttress.)

In addition to the above, avoid topping out where possible.

7m. Please do not climb this problem!

It is documented for completeness and as a means to communicate that it should not be climbed. This is essentially a continuation of "The Tufa", climbing directly above to top out through the small roof. However there is a longstanding precedent that in order to preserve vegetation, in line with the Wood's status as an SSSI and nature reserve, all problems at Anston Stones should not be topped out.
