Climbed four problems on the outcrops between the parking at the end of Moorbank Road and the main crag (or right from the golf course path) - labelled "Dursley outcrops" on the topo: https://www.flickr.com/photos/164452937@N06/41077633395/in/dateposted-public/

Three of the problems are half way along the path between the parking and the main crag:
1. Vernon’s chin (5+) – Reach around the lip to the shelf, then hurl up to the large break and top out direct.
2. Petunia arete (3) – up the right aręte, top out leftwards.
3. Dudley’s lip (5-) – From under the roof, gain the shelf and then either use the crimp rail out left or reach straight for the top.

The last problem is another 50m further along, so slightly nearer the main crag:
4. Marjorie’s roof (5) – up the central slab and over the lip

I carried out minimal gardening so the landings are a bit suspect! Anyone done these before?
