Chatsworth Bouldering... again...
March 05, 2009, 08:40:08 pm
Following on from the Desperot thread a wee while back - I checked out the boulders that Percy alluded to behind the house on a small edge set back just left from the old aqueduct.

Looks to be some quality stuff there - sorry no piccys yet - has anyone else checked this out since the last thread?

Cheers

Si

So Chatsworth is here:

http://www.getlatlon.com/

Copy this into the box:
53.24511644657705, -1.5889889001846313

Where are these boulders?

I think I remember Percy saying they might be on private land. What's the deal?

As I said really boss ...

Its Chatsworth Estate Ru, no Access issues I would have thought as there are many tracks in the woods behind the house that are open to walkers & people mooch about there all the time seeking the Hunting Tower & Aqueduct etc.

The Grounds staff that I talked to seemed very laid back about my mooching.

I have found the rocks left of the aqueduct (looking up hill). To be honest I didn't see anything worth going back with boots for. I'm sure Percy mentioned a quality 7a+ wall, my assumption was that this must be way further right and very well hidden.

Does any one have any info on the Beeley Hilltop stuff mentioned in Peak7+8 ?
