A massive rock fall occurred in intro="2010 at the left hand end of the cliff above and over Justin's Crack and Spiderman's Arsehole. The cliff above these two routes is still unstable and more rock fall over these climbs is not unlikely. The Council have erected a barrier fence preventing access to the area. <br/><br/>A rock is a rock they say, but if you think bolted routes take the adventure out of climbing then it’s time you paid a visit to the birthplace of the world’s next fad: choss climbing! Take one tottering pile of exfoliating rubble, add wide-eyed climbers with psychotic hammer drills and shares in Ramset. The result: a multitude of good routes carefully engineered so that every ascent is a first ascent i.e. all the holds break all the time. The procedure for doing new routes is as follows. Put on a blindfold, rap down, drilling at random. Carry a sack of rocks to place on holds so that every ascentionistascensionist gets a “unique” experience and every belayer gets a discount lobotomy. Remember, leading is the way to go here as the only other access to the chains is by jumping off the top and grabbing them on the way past. <br/>If><br/>If you haven''t got the message, the rock here is loose,. andSmall small and large chunksblocks canregularly andpart docompany comewith offthe cliff - be warned.

Built my Hammer Drill. Lower section is a crimpfest, the middle section a side-pulling stepladder and upper section a cruxy blank face. Stay centred on the bolt line and do not use holds to your left (Urban Renewal) or right (Jesus). Finish at the same anchor as Resurrection and Drilling in the Name Of. In loving memory of Majo.</climb>
