Restricted Access

The landowners have requested no more bolting or group use in the West Quarry.

User attention

The landowner has temporarily closed off access to the western part of the crag while they investigate reports of geological instability. They have stated that this closure is currently temporary and will be updating the BMC once the investigation has taken place. In the meantime please do not access or climb here. The coastgaurd has indicated that given the potentialy dangerous condition of the crag they would not send in rescuers should an emergency arise whilst thie closure is in place. from 18/04/2023

A fine pitch with ‘mountain’ atmosphere. The lower part is often damp, but this does
not affect the grade. Climb the deep, black, chimney to the ledge on the left. A
short crack leads to an airy traverse out left to a sound exit.
