Restricted Access

A large limestone quarry where access is unclear.

Note 26/03/24: It has been reported that climbers have been challenged by someone claiming to represent the landowner. The climbers were told climbing was not permitted and that the owner intends to start prosecuting climbers. It should be noted that trespass is a civil offence only and there would be no grounds for prosecution, so long as no criminal damage had been done and the individuals left when asked to do so. 

Anyone challenged in this way is asked to take a name and contact details so that the matter can be followed up by the BMC.

βeta: I\'ve cut away lots of brambles at the base of route and cleaned loads of moss off the first ledge. You can clip stick the first bolt of Prole Art Threat from the ground and that can protect you climbing up onto the ledges. The first bolt of this route is mostly hidden on a flat ledge but easy to see and clip once you are up on the higher grassy ledge. Above this more normal juggy climbing awaits.
