Approach notes

Park on Oakley Square by the rec to keep the locals happy. You can see the crag from here. Walk to the main road, head left to where a sign points between the houses. This leads behind a terrace of houses to a narrow tunnel under the railway line. Beyond here for the footpath left. Just past the last house, go right across the stream to a party that runs below the crag. Scramble up various ways to the section of your choice.

No Access Issues

The crag is on access land.

Ran into the landowner on 28/7/25. He didn't seem to have issue with climbing, but disliked the plaques at the base of the climbs. Said he'd be in touch with the BMC.

There have been several wildfires on the last few months and the left end of the crash has been burnt and is rather mucky with ash.

Visited this yesterday, it was raining overnight and many of the routes were wet and dripping. Still good grip on the 4/5 grades as there are lots of positive holds. Bolts all look well maintained. Gold star to whoever put slate plaques on all the routes with the names on, Fantastic! Parking was difficult, we found 1 spot nearby, but no obvious car parks nearby. Perhaps someone could suggest a good location? Great view of the local village and surrounding hills.

The chock in the groove on Jack Kid (5b) is now completely loose - I fell down the route after committing to it. Another climber saie they'd remove it and check thw bolt it's now covering.

Nice sports venue, The bolting is Spot on, would highly recommend it.

This mid-grade sports venue is worthy of more traffic...The path to the crag is protected by a montage of gnomes here you turn left and follow the obvious path.
