This book covers the whole of the north east of England running in a north-easterly diagonal line from Yorkshire through the North York Moors and ending in Northumberland. The wide rolling hills, outcrops and quarries of Sandstone and Gritstone that pepper northern England have long been popular with the locals, though visitors are less common, except on the few better known cliffs.

With a variety of crags and easy access all this is possible in the Peak area. The main attractions are the extensive gritstone crags that stretch from Wimberry in the northwest, through the eastern edges and the central grit crags, and on to Staffordshire.

A dedicated Guide book to the awsome limestone climbing to be found in the Peak District. This 2012 edition of Peak Limestone covers all the best limestone crags from Stoney in the north down to High Tor in the south.

This book provides a compact and low cost introduction to the brilliant climbing found in the NE Peak Area. It is presented in the same clear and easy-to-follow style that make Rockfax publications but it has been stripped down to give just the essentials required by many climbers.

Together with Peak NE , Peak SE Pokketz from Rockfax is a great introduction to climbing in the Peak District, both on Gritstone and Limestone. The routes covered represent the very best on offer in the grade range up to HVS - there are even a few E1's and E2's to whet your appetite.
