A crag within walking distance of the house that was once the most popular crag in the Peak District due to its closeness to the railway station. It is now a place that people rarely climb. I have never been there. The conditions were right, no rain for weeks and no one around to suggest to me that an hour walk in was unreasonable for a Peak District Gritstone crag.
We did The long Climb S 4a, Pillar Ridge HS 4b and Tower face VS 5a. Two hours of walking, some climbing, perigrine falcons, hardly any driving and some sun. What more could one ask for.
