The North Crag is a towering wall seamed with long grooves and ramps which holds a selection of classic multi-pitch lines that are both steep and sustained. Unfortunately the left-hand side of the North Crag suffered a large rockfall in 2018 that wiped out some routes; those that remain have been reclimbed and the rock is mostly stable although care is still needed.
The South Crag is a far friendlier spot that gets lots of sun.
Approach notes
Park at Legburthwaite carpark (fee). Take the path opposite the toilets and over the road to a field. Walk up the field a short way to a track.
For the North Crag, walk left along the track to a gate and then up next to the fence to reach a water culvert. Cross the small bridge and head up to below the cliff.
For the South Crag, cross the track and take a well-defined path up the field and over a water culvert and wall to the base of the cliff.

Tuesdays meet is Castle Rock of Triermain – South Crag. The settled weather is forecast to continue so I aim to be at the crag for around 3 pm. Grades range from VDiff to E1 on good clean rock. Parking is either just off the A591 (free) or the paid parking below the crag. For any further information contact me via WhatsApp.
Mike
