This smart crag is just below the top path, way past the Boss Cave / Quarryman’s Kitchen and just before the 99 steps down to the road. You are above the Railway and Totley tunnel at this point of Yarncliffe edge. I found this fine wall last year whilst prospecting and it was again minging dirty with lichen & moss. After several cleaning sessions we sent all the main lines in April with a few eliminates & sit starts possible.
It's a really nice spot and well worth a visit to watch the sunset from. I put the details on UKC if anyone wants to head there:
