Crag features
Small quarry on farmland with a few buttresses.
Includes one of the most impressive walls in the area with features that are very uncommon on sandstone due to the quarried nature of the rock. Potential for many new routes, many of which will be in the upper grades.
Top of crag is very sharp, ensure that a rope protector is used.
As with all Southern Sandstone - Top Roping or Soloing only.
