Ascents of Old England

A fun ramble, found the first move tough, probably easy for a beginner jammer, but I'm not even that. Second pitch is not for beginner leaders, easy but run out on poor gear until nearly the top where you get a massive sling.

Up p1 then traverse across slab to belay of SPB. A good way to do this and avoid the choss in p2.

The first pitch is really great. Lots of hand jamming and not obvious moves. Good pro. Definitely worth 2 stars. Hanging belay on trad gear at the end of the first pitch. The rest (2nd pitch) - is a choss almost without pro. Went righter after the second roof to find more pro. It's very old-school 12 - way harder than Eyrie. Feels like 15-16.

Climbed in one pitch. Belayed off the tree. Drag was fine, just extend stuff.

Accidentally climbed this instead of the route to the right. Not bad though!

Fun little ramble. Wanders around a bit to find gear but still pretty pleasant.

Sunshine laps after work

Shooting straight through the roofs for a bit more of a workout.

Not quite the 50th Anniversary ascent but we're getting close. Must have been a classic back in the day. still holds its own imho though lots more pro available with modern gear. Climbed as one pitch in approach shoes. Would be an even better experience if done with old school gear and mountain boots ... Classic.

Wandery and a little dirty as not much traffic i guess
