A blasted rock face in front of the Info Lodge at Rockwood Park. There is a roadway leading towards the campground, running along the base of the cliff. Between the the face and road and the Info Lodge is a small duck pond. There are a likely total of 15-20 routes here, with some needing top rope anchors put in and some using anchors from nearbye routes. There are 6 or 7 routes which have two bolt anchors to top-rope from. 3 of these routes are also sport-lead routes with each having 4 or 5 bolts for protection on sport-lead. One route has the potential to be lead traditionally, but it is not suggested, due to the unsafe nature of blasted rock. This cliff is frequently used by the locals for learning the basics before they head to Welsford's Cochrane Lane (30 mins away). The top-rope bolts were originally installed about 15-20 years ago, but have since been replaced and are safe. The 3 lead routes' bolts were installed in Y2002.
