Restricted Access

The National Trust (who own the Dewerstone and surrounding land) are happy to allow climbing access but ask that abseil descent from trees is not used to prevent damage to the trees.

Seasonal Restrictions

Dates: 21 April to 30 June

Reason: Nesting Birds

Kestrels are nesting on Upper Raven Buttress - it is worth avoiding these rarely visited climbs while the birds are nesting and it is likely that the young will have fledged by the end of June.
15m.

Climb the wall direct to the widening crack with a large chockstone. Tricky and quite 'goey' climbing. © Rockfax

UKC Logbook Description
1) 5a. Climb the wide, slanting, crack; with a hard layaway move to reach the large chockstone at the top. This route has a bold feel to it.
