Frodsham

Cheshire

Actually a series of small outcrops up to 30ft high (mostly lower, though it may feel more trying weird move round an overhang). A good spot for a summer evening's bouldering, but shrouded in trees and green in winter. You may find E grades more appropriate than Vs for some problems.

Parking and Approach

Head W on the A56 from Frodsham (off the M56). Turn L onto the B5393. After 1.4mi the road turns R; carry straight on for 700m and park carefully by a track leading L into the woods (Spirit of the Herd). Follow the track and turn L through a kissing gate. Follow an uphill path more or less diagonally through newish plantation to the top corner of the field. Drop down L to the first buttress (Hoopla) after a few more metres. The main crag is below the open track, the crag above is poorer quality.
