Beschreibung
The Brand is the name of the house owned by the Martin family. Over the years a very good relationship with the family has been built up with the local climbing community. This has resulted in there being no problem with people climbing providing they have contacted the family or their land agent, and been given permission.
Einschränkungen
Access is strictly limited to parties having permission to climb from the family. You should telephone first and follow the instructions given.
You may or may not be granted permission to climb; this is at the family’s discretion.
You will be asked to park at the house.
Climbers are asked not to destroy the excellent relationship that exists with the family by climbing without permission and leaving litter.
It is useless to trespass because the crag is plainly visible from the house.
The garden is also a Site of Special Scientific Interest because of the rare lichen and fern species situated here.

Tors and boulders of volcanic breccia scattered around Cademan Wood and Broad Hill.
Einschränkungen
Cademan Woods has become increasingly popular with climbers, however, this increased traffic is presenting a threat to continued access. Please keep an eye on the access advice on UKC.com which will be more up to date than this guide. Many of the issues that come with increased traffic can be addressed if we park sensibly and pick up any litter found. Climbers need to show that they are having a positive impact on the local environment and community.
