Knightcott Rocks

Avon and Somerset

Micro-crag near Banwell, Somerset. 7 metres high slab of geologically interesting rock, it appears to be Clifton Down Limestone which has some red conglomerate in it's lower sections, fairly solid though. It was probably a very old quarry. A worthwhile place to spend an hour on a summer evening,tree belays at the top.

Currently overgrown and very mossy at the bottom. Digger operator on the land above the cliff being very careless with letting debris slide down the slope. I guess we were unlucky in that regard. Still, cannot recommend.
