No access problems. The area is part of the Eastern Edges SSSI designated for its assemblage of breeding birds - please make sure dogs are under control to protect birds and sheep: the grazier has reported losses.
Reason: Nesting Birds
Ring ouzel nest sites change quickly and frequently as they often have several broods each year with different nest sites for each brood. On site signage will be up around any of the nest sites where climbing may impact on the birds and this is always up to date and accurate.

βeta: If Millsom's minion is E1 then so is this - very similar levels of difficulty and runout/gear. Presumably could be protected (at HVS) with a side runner in big chimney arete. | βeta? | |

βeta: This is more HVS than Knight's Move. Crux move is well protected though (if you have the right rack). | βeta? | |

βeta: A lovely route, the crux being the reach off the undercut to the break. Shame Windjammer is not on the database, another excellent route with a brilliant move up the left arete. | βeta? | |
