Location and Approach
From the A1 at Alnwick: Take the B1340 turn for Alnwick and Seahouses, turning left towards Alnwick then immediately right. Bear right at the next roundabout onto the B6341 and park in a layby on the left. The following is quoted direct from the NMC as the instrucions must be followed precisely: "Go north for a few metres to a gate, go through the gate in the field on the right then follow the fence on the left downhill to a gate. Go through the gate and continue to follow the other side of the fence until a gate on the right leads to the crag in the wood. There is no right of way, and there have been access problems in the past, so follow this route exactly".
Public Transport: Buses to Alnwick and walk out from the town on the B6341
