Robin Proctors Scar, N Yorks Saturday 19 Jul 2025

Robin Proctor’s Scar, Clapham – 19th July
Saturday’s meet is at Robin Proctor’s Scar at Clapham in the Yorkshire Dales. The limestone crag has been redeveloped as a sport crag and extensively cleaned and bolted. With climbs in the range of grades from 5a to 7a, many around 6a, it lends itself to a group meet. There’s some cracking routes and being newly developed it’s not polished. The view from the crag is one of the best in the Dales and the rock is quick drying with a sunny aspect. For those that don’t wish to climb, there are great walks in the same area.
There is a pay and display car park in Clapham https://maps.app.goo.gl/x3A6guxwuLNJuVrs5
From there, a straightforward walk of a couple of Km leads to the crag.
The pub will be The Old Manor House Bar by the car park.
At the moment, the forecast for the weekend is Thundery Showers. I’ll keep an eye on this through the week and make a call on Friday morning.

For those avidly watching the weather forecasts, it will come as no surprise that I have decided to CANCEL Saturday’s meet at Robin Proctor’s Scar and downpours and thunderstorms are forecast.
