Palleys Crag

Yorkshire Gritstone

A small area consisting of one large block and several smaller ones. Strangely dismissed in the past and, although not a major venue, will provide a days fun for those that don't mind sit-down starts. The large block tends to be a bit scrittly but the smaller ones are of bullet hard, pocketed grit.Climbed on for years Tony Barley, John Pearson, Francis Holland, John Hunt and John Rushby are likely candidates?

Parking and Approach

Close to the Blubberhouses to Pateley Road north of the Stone House Inn Crossroads. Easy access is via a signposted footpath through the farmyard. Unfortunately parking is difficult for this route. An alternative, perhaps better option, is from SE of the hill via Braithwaite Lane, again at signposted footpath. This leads past Deerings Heights to the moor but access from here depends on where the heather has been burnt as footpaths are hard to find. If you visit The Far Block the return is straight downhill to Deerings Heights.
