Restricted Access

The BMC has learned that palaeolithic man visited Barrow Scout Cove in Silverdale some 12,000 years before sport climbers: the unassuming cave and the area around the cave mouth are a scheduled site. The site is vulnerable so to preserve it and avoid any accidental damage, climbers have agreed not to go past route 14 (Pincher). Both Caveman and Going Underground must be avoided, other climbs to the left of the cave are still permitted.

10m.
