Restricted Access
The bouldering at Anston Stones Wood all takes place on land owned by Anston Parish Council. To preserve the good relationship that climbers have with the Parish Council, The British Mountaineering Council have agreed the following guidelines which we ask all climbers to adhere to:
- Stick to existing footpaths and firm ground, avoid trampling on vegetation
- Pick up any litter you come across
- Stay off the railway line
- Climb only on areas that have already been developed (i.e. Woody’s Rock, the Wave area, Rocky Valley, Hidden Wall, Apprentice Wall, Dukes Wall, Through Post, and Frodo buttress.)
In addition to the above, avoid topping out where possible.

βeta: I broke one of the holds on this under the roof earlier this year. I don't know how much difference this makes though. You can use a pinch nearer the lip instead which sets you up for a chuck to the pocket in the same way as I was trying with the undercut. It also looks possible to keep your feet on the plinth, get the crimp on the lip with your left and then jump for the pocket. I still have the hold which was a small blobby hold you could undercut with your right hand. I can stick it back on if anyone knows if it was crucial and the problem is unclimbable as a result. | ||
