Clifton Reynes Bridge - Nr Olney
November 15, 2011, 04:26:46 pm
Does anyone know if there is a Topo for this location, a bit like the one that exists for Slawston bridge?

I've tried searching here and Google, but can't find anything

Cheers
Gary

I did actually try to find this place once - based on a description I found somewhere - but \i couldn't find it... leicestershire online topos might have some information. It's not much cop though by all accounts

Thanks anyway,

We quite like Slawston, so just looking for anything else local worth playing at.

The Roaches this weekend though, so fingers crossed for the weather :)

I was just thinking about this place. What're the chances of it being mentioned on here?
I went here in July and i was pleasantly surprised. it was hard to find though. We went the wrong way and the place is a bit horsey but its effectively the turning opposite the pub, head off down that small road an it'll run out at a wood furniture unit. you will by this time have gone over the main bridge.
There are two routes down to it either through the hedge or down a rubble road at the edge of a field.
Its very fingery and fun, as I had no mat I just did low traversing but imagine with a mat there are plenty of routes you could invent.
You may wanna take a brush, its unused so is a bit cobwebby etc. Definately worth climbing up though, ent exactly spoilt for choice in these parts.
If I should ever get hold of a mat I'll be down there all the while.
Btw, couple of pictures on the UKClimbing logbook that I put up.

Cheers for the directions Jamie, that will help us find it when we do head out that way.
