About Ravens Scar (OS):

One of the best outcrops in the area. The crag is sandstone and somewhat mossy in appearance. It is north facing and takes a few days to dry after rain, but in the summer during a dry spell it gives superb routes in all grades up to E3. About 70 routes up to 60 feet long, with the best routes in the harder grades.
Nearest town or city: Stokesley

4 miles SSE of Stokesley. Take the B1257 south for 3 miles to a parking spot and picnic area on the left. From here a path leads west (right) above the forest. The first crag reached is Landslip, with about 10 routes in the lower grades. Further around is Raven's Scar, reached in about ten minutes. Another 5 minutes brings one to The Wainstones.
