Access Banned

Mountaineering Ireland is actively engaged with Newry, Mourne & Down District Council in relation to securing access for climbing at Moorhill Quarry. In the meantime climbing at Moorhill Quarry is not allowed. There is a new lock on the gate installed by the council on 18/11/2022. Please do not use the quarry to ensure that the talks between MI and the Council runs smoothly.

Very deceptive, everything looks definite and obvious, but very pumpy. Uncertainty about grade - my be E2 5b - views welcomed before this one is confirmed
