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.

4m. Dyno from the juggy bottom end of the flake, to the top. Made famous by Johnny Dawes performing an ascent in the classic film "Stone Monkey".

βeta: The real 'stone monkey dyno' is diagonally from the flake to the spike on the top right and it feels much harder than V5 to me, and I imagine even harder for JD at 5'4? Straight up to the top should be called Shark's Fin Dyno and V5 is about right. Here's the JD dyno https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7Vzcn-HUQQ8&t=49s
