Restricted Access
A review of the previous access agreement with Gloucestershire Wildlife Trust (GWT) has now taken place and the climbable area has been extended,
This extension is only possible due to climbers following the agreed access since 2018 and demonstrating that we are a responsible user group. Needless to say maintaining this extended access depends on future adherence to the below climber's code of conduct too:
- All routes left of It’s A Sin on the lower tier and the whole of the upper tier on Main Cliff are permanently restricted to provide a sanctuary area within the reserve.
- Peregrines have nested on the crag in the past and nesting restrictions may apply
- Only use existing paths to prevent damage to sensitive habitat
- No removal of trees or branches on the crag or elsewhere within the reserve
- Take your litter home and pick up any you find at the crag
- No fires, camping or bivvying anywhere on the GWT’s land
- No further new routing
12m.
At left-hand end of Nine Lives Sector of Right-Hand Escarpment. Coming from right the path makes a slight rise to a buttress of cleaned rock with the stumps of a sawn-off tree at its right-hand side. The climb goes up a faint groove with three bolts to a lower-off (two rings)

βeta: Once I got the the lank bit I remembered flailing around on top rope the first time I came here. Decent high foot, tiny crimp and finger crack dynamically moving to the jug, bit too smeary for my likes | ||

βeta: Straightforward for the tall (~1.8m), but the crucial jug is pretty hard to get if you are anything less | ||
