Lower Sharpnose), and the serious adventure climbing on the Atlantic Coast of Cornwall (inc. Tintagel, Pentire, and Carn Gowla).

One of three 'Climbers Club' guides to the Wye Valley area - this volume, written by Martin Crocker, describes the short “grit-like” sandstone boulders / cliffs that abound in the area. The 'Forest of Dean' experience is one of soft, leafy and shady surrounds where the heady mix of grit-like solo-bouldering of up to 10m has great appeal particularly for those who can't face or are unwilling to travel the 160 miles or so to the Peak.
