The Promenade: rockfall update as at February 2015
- (p 256) routes 29 (German New Order) to 36 (Original Route) have been badly affected by the swiping away of the lower strip roof!
- (p 259) routes 53 and 54 (The Calling and Guided by Voices) have been affected by the loss of a small strip roof in their lower sections!
- (p 266) the traverse link between The Promenade and Unknown Ledge has been broken by the collapse of the flying buttress and the removal of the portal. It has left a protruding buttress of fresh rock and a sea-level holdless, seaweedy slab. Four routes have been destroyed : Crack of Dawn and Thunder Wall (which have clung on for decades!); as well as the newer additions : Eastwood Ho! and Matt Wild Hairy Frog!
