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: Quality climbing but several of the holds are clearly enhanced with drill dimples which takes away from the route. | βeta? | |

βeta: The climb is climbable and is fully bolted. The missing hangers are part of a project between this line and ‘This is not a drill’. | βeta? | |

βeta: I put the lower off in in 2015 after Si did the route next door and pulled blocks off above the groove bit and briefly cleaned the route. It looked 7b ish, hard to get clean and I left it until I got fitter. Never went back (never got much fitter!). | βeta? | |
