Restricted Access
Ramshaw is home to some of the hardest routes in Britain and most of them are graded HVS - a Yosemite style tape job is the only access requirement! There are no access problems at the main crag. However, do not try and climb at Lady Rock (the buttresses on the far right above the farm house), these are not on access land, the owner lives very close and has been confrontational.
Rockfax Description
12m. A precarious and unprotected scoop leads to the start of the handrail - scary stuff! Rumoured to be only E1 with a courageous spotter, but it looks like a hell of a tumble. © Rockfax

βeta: So grade it for a solo if you like, but all it takes is a reasonably courageous belayer/spotter and it becomes E1. Easier and safer then than Magic Roundabout SuperDirect. | βeta? | |
