Restricted Access

There are old signs on the approach paths indicating that climbing is not allowed. However the crag is on CRoW designated land and as such climbing is a legally permitted activity.  However, climbers must not climb on, or belay from, the walls of the ruined chapel - this is a Grade I listed building and Scheduled Ancient Monument, and any damage to it would be a criminal offence.  Roche Rock is a SSSI for its unique geology and so damage to or removal of rock is not permitted - no fixed gear should be placed here.  

20m. Climb the slab of Lord Falmouth, hand traverse as for Moping Owl and finish as for that route.

βeta: FRA. Must have been done before but not recorded. A combination of two good bits of existing routes giving contrasting styles of climbing.
