Routes in Northern England for selected grade

Pre 1912.

Strenuous. Takes the undercut hand crack that sadly widens above. Once established above the undercut section, the climbing eases. Finish up slightly right for maximum enjoyment. The climb got its name from starting up the lefthand crack and then traversing across on the big ledge.

Pre 1912. Described as "fancy gymnastics" by the Yorkshire Ramblers President Claude Benson.

Up the corner crack to the overhang and follow the rightward traverse . Good holds to finish.

Put up in 1919. Possibly the best known climb at Almscliff, along with Great Western. Follow the green crack to a small ledge below the overhang. Step right and pull up into the upper crack. The final overhang keeps things interesting.
