The landowner does not permit climbing on this site and all details are recorded to preserve the historical record. This site has been the subject of a major rockfall in the past when the back wall collapsed and whilst the front faces look OK, significant fissures behind them may make them seriously unstable. Following this large rockfall, a fence has been erected below the cliff to prevent public access.

The faint crack-line splitting the centre of the wall gives good sustained climbing on interesting rock. © Rockfax

βeta: A fine but, at first, thin, and sustained route giving way to some unusual and strangely enjoyable crustacean-type holds higher up. Very much more 6b+ than the 6b suggested on the Peak Sports Climbs website. As noted elsewhere, in two places the bolting felt unnecessarily bold with a potentially nasty fall at least at one point. | ||
