5 minsIntake Quarry is now banned. Currently the best-developed wall in the quarry is the Darkness Wall. The routes here are relatively high and on weathered rock which, although still a bit dusty, will soon clean up. The narrow ledges below the wall have a series of bolt belays - care is required here if it is at all damp. Guidebook page 207.
