The show cave owners have said they are happy for people to climb here, but are concerned about theft of the mineral for which that area is famous. They will challenge and call the police on anyone they suspect of stealing, and mentioned pretty hefty fines. They also stated that they periodically set cameras up there. So if you see any nice rocks on the floor while climbing there don’t be tempted to pocket them. Also, although when in the crag you’re nigh on invisible, except when topping out, you are likely to be heard from the show cave, (apparently noise travels well there), so needless to say, like all crags, best behaviour, and no speakers or shouting please.

βeta: Does't make much sense at 7A given it does most of Orgreave/Pentrich and then has a harder move, and definitely not three grades easier than the Peterloo-Grenfell link. Probably 7A+.
