There are two small crags, Great Round How and  Little Round How which is passed on the approach. The two crags offer Single pitch routes some stretching the 50m rope. These are generally hard to protect and tend to be lichenous. A connoisseurs crag.

Approach notes

Park at Honister slate mine and follow the tramway footpath which stays left of the mine access road and trends towards the west. This leads past the upper section of the quarry, and past a slate hut. Drop down at this point and cross a stream heading broadly westwards. You then pass Little Round How on your left, shortly after take a left fork in the path, Great Round How will be visible
