PREAMBLE
A small collection of beach-level slabs in the vicinity of the larger (and also family friendly) Prissen's Tor. Pleasant spot for easy soloing. There may be some short (8m) and off-the-sand trad lines available.
Jeremy Talbot noted that, together with Prissen's Tor, "...there is no climbing of interest" [1]
ACCESS
As for Prissen's Tor and then continue walking 400 metres north-eastwards along the beach.
