Stanage End Slab

The first main climbers' crag at Stanage End, probably an old quarry face. I'm sure it has a name. Anyone care to help out please?

Stanage Edge is comprised of Rivelin Grit (aka Chatsworth Grit), Namurian age, Upper Carboniferous. The coarse-grained gritstone was deposited in a series of delta distributary channels. The gritstone is normally strongly cross-bedded, as seen here.
