Wierd topo, ukc says there are more lines than this. Might be a start tho. I've not been.

Went today. Good bolt protected technical climbing. Beautiful setting next to the river, over looking a grassy sheep filled field, so probably good for kids etc. (take a Frisbee). Soft sandstone, so a little sandy but not so bad on the main wall. Don't bother with anything to the right of the main wall/amphitheatre as they are hopelessly sandy. A combination of UKCs route list and the Cumbria Bolt Fund's topo will give you a usable guide. Recommended Routes -

The Sands of Time 6a+
Two Pints and a Packet of Crisps 6b+
Resisting Chiptation 6c+
Big in Japan 7a
Perfect Weather to Fly 7a
- all 2 star

I didn't try anything on the left wall but they look OK.

Don't let its slabby nature put you off as I still felt like I had good workout. Mrs Aaronator enjoyed it and I still have a days worth of climbing left to do, so will be going back.

Nice crag :2thumbsup:
