Masson Lees

Masson Lees has had a bit of a chequered history but has now established itself as one of the better modern quarries in the Peak. It is a genuine hole in the ground, which makes it sheltered from the wind and also has a cave entrance and the steep dry-tooling area at the far southern end.The developed climbing is on the two facing side walls which give contrasting routes and conditions. The left-hand side is sunny and mostly slabbier with friendly and popular routes. The darker right-hand side receives much less sun, is slow to dry and has more steep and technical wall climbs.Access to the quarry is not fully clear but it seems to be tolerated. There have been attempts to back-fill the quarry although these appear to have stopped now.
