Thinking of climbing in Devon on Sunday and forecast looks dryish around Plymouth (though a bit of rain on Saturday). Has anyone climbed at The Dewerstone recently and it is likely to be worth a visit?

Will probably head to somewhere more exposed on Dartmoor if it's a bad idea. Avoiding Chudleigh at all costs.
The weather down here has been alright the past couple of days, it usual takes a day or so to dry out on the main face but most of the classics are usually alright the next day.

It definitely does! TBH you'll always find a dry line or two, and its been fairly dry this week, but I'd expect the crack lines on the main face to still be seeping. But if you drop you grade expectations, I'm sure you'll be fine.
