The crags enjoy a fine aspect and North Buttress can provide a few hours of quality climbing. The routes are not long but there are a few excellent lines across the grades. In dry weather ledges and holds can become dusty and heathery topouts are an additional challenge.
Due to ground nesting birds the land owners have been granted a 5 year dog ban.
There are few reliable anchors and any stakes should be treat with caution.
Bracken can be an issue in summer including obscuring a number of holes and drops around the crags.
Seasonal Restrictions
Reason: Nesting Birds
Either tackle the arête direct or as for the previous route and climb to gain the obvious rising shelf about 4m up the arête. Climb the left hand side of steep upper arête with increasing difficulty. Excellent climbing with adequate protection
