How To get there:
From the tunnel, turn left into Norwich Quay, then left up Oxford street (3rd on the left), right on Exeter then left into St David Street. Continue straight up the hill into Brenchley Rd and drive to the very end before the first gate. Park clear of the Road and gate. Through the gate and follow the OLD 4wd track through another gate. Continue on the track between stone walls up the valley, the Chalmers track. Once past the crag, look for a warratah with a yellow marker on top on your right. Cut off the main track and climb gradually across to the left hand edge of the wall. The track and scrub around the base of the crag was freshly cut back on Jan 1st 2015.
