Restricted Access

There is no access agreement with the landowner for Moss Rake and private property signs have been put up. We are trying to contact the landowner to discuss the situaiton and attempt to negotiate access, but don't have definite contact details yet. If anyone knows or meets the landowner of the section of the quarry where the climbing is located, please ask for their contact details or pass on the details for Jon Fullwood (BMC Access & Conservation Officer England) - jon.fullwood@thebmc.co.uk

Seasonal Restrictions

Dates: 1 March to 30 June

Reason: Nesting Birds

The restriction is in effect for 2024. The restriction applies to the whole quarry to prevent disturbance to nesting Schedule 1 birds.

16m. The final route on which the first ascent involved the late John Allen. The best route on the lower tier. A hard initial groove doesn't relent as expected, and the final jamming crack is steeper than expected, but a hidden bucket proves welcome consolation. A lack of determination may bump the grade to 6c.
