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.

Climb WSPU as far as a crystal-spangled rail in the underside of the arch then blast out and around to finish up Orgreave. © Rockfax

UKC Logbook Description
Link Peterloo into the reverse of No Surprises as far as the crystaly rail that faces the valley then directly out in to the jug slot to finish up Orgreave. The hardest of the logical lines.

βeta: There\'s a good knee bar before you go in to Orgreave which you can rinse, so felt a little closer to 7B+.

βeta: So many kneebars! 5 with my current sequence, and surely potential for more.
