A Crag Guide gives an extensive view of all sub areas and climbs at a point in the index. It shows a snapshot of the index heirachy, up to 300 climbs (or areas) on a single web page. It shows selected comments climbers have made on a recently submitted ascent.
At a minor crag level this should be suitable for printing and taking with you on a climbing trip as an adjunct to your guidebook.

summary
South facing Sheltered crag with easy access. Sandstone.
description
Extensive venue with low grades from 4 to 6c primarily. There are a bunch of 7a and one 7b. The style is bouldery and juggy. It is advised not to climb right after a period of wet weather, as the sandstone is unstable until dry and pieces of rock are more likely to come loose.
access issues
No issues.
approach
Once parked at the Neverland Captain Hook's pirate ship play area, or at the Camera Obscura parking area, follow the path east and turn right along the wall of the cementery. Then turn left to walk under the trees to reach the crag.
