An exposed crag with stunning views and a remote feel. Most routes are in the VS-HVS range. A fine spot for bilberries.
June 2024 - currently peregrines nesting on Cave Buttress.
From the a697 Morpeth - Wooler road,800 metres N of the B6341 junction there is a bend with a minor road signposted "Thrunton Wood". Park about 200 metres from the junction near a forestry road on the West. Follow the forestry road past the pylons and the recently felled area until a left turn near some still-standing forest. Head off right up a track through the trees, coming out at the top of the hill. Follow the path right to the trig then left along the edge, reaching the crag soon after (or cut straight across after emerging from the woods).
Dates: 1 March to 1 September
Reason: Nesting Birds
Peregrine nest found at Cave Buttress on 12/5/2024.
