A good beginner to intermediate area with easy access that is popular with families and school groups. This crag is a good place to warm up in the morning sun, and a nice retreat from late afternoon sun. Please follow the signposted rules for this area.
This access track is on private property. From the Hospital Flat car park, cross the road and then the stile, and walk about 100m following the marked track north to the cliffs, just around the corner at or near the valley floor.
