Crag features
An atmospheric venue with intricate and sometimes strenuous climbing on very steep rock. The zawn comprises two very steep faces of mixed metamorphic rock lying at right-angles to each other. The faces are separated by a corner-chimney that becomes a chossy break in its upper reaches.
Approach notes
Approach along a wide track leading northwards from the village of Botallack, keeping left of Botallack Manor, to reach ample parking just past the Botallack Count House (National Trust). Several paths lead down through old mine buildings to the cliff edge from where a broad track is followed down to the distinctive Crowns Mine engine houses, perched above the sea down to the right (facing out). Continue past the upper mine building and follow a narrow path that leads ahead below broken cliffs to reach a flat area. Freedom Zawn lies down to the right (facing out) and is reached down an earthy and grassy rake, and then down a rock ramp.
