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.

8m. The beautiful arete right of Winchester gives a short sequence of superb technical climbing protected by three very poor knife blades equalised with tatt and two better pegs in the horizontal break (small grey camalot in slot to back up pegs in horizontal break). Headpoint first ascent.
