About Denham Quarry (OS):

A popular crag with about 100 routes in all grades to E4. Good gritstone, 30 to 90 feet tall, and plenty of good routes. Well worth a visit. Home of the classic VS (and I am not making this up)...Mohammed the Mad Monk of Moorside Home for Mental Misfits. Climb it just for the name!!!
