Description: Delightful
small bouldering crag - North West facing but sheltered. It gets
the sun from approximately 2pm onwards. Superb rough pocketed "Reef
Knoll Limestone" and generally good tops, although routes 4
and 5 have dubious rock at the top so traversing off is recommended
on these two routes. It is also recommended that you have a spotter
on most routes as a couple of other holds have snapped without warning.
