| 104 | Stuart Mitchell | This quarry is a valuable and much loved local resource for Fife, Lothian and Central Belt rock climbers. It is also used by locals who would lose yet another part of scarce recreational ground close to home if the development went ahead. As climbers and some locals are committed to clearing up the quarry and making a more agreeable place for all, I would urge the council to reject this application on the grounds of the quarry being at least a recreational resource of significant regional importance. |

| 106 | James Hendry | Never been climbing there, so can't say how brilliant it is, but but would like the chance to find out. |

| 109 | Anonymous | Rosyth Quarry is a very good natural venue for climders and should be done away with. |
| 110 | Kenneth Gillen | Don't let them do it! |
| 111 | Ian Jones | Are there no other suitable sites for housing developments in the Inverkeithing/Rosyth area?
This is a valuable recreational resource for climbers in and around Edinburgh. I would urge the council to reject this application. |
| 112 | Iain Forrest | It'd be a shame to lose a part of our already limited climbing resource in Central Scotland. |
| 113 | Tristan Stricker | NO WAY MAN, SAVE ROSYTH QUARRY |
| 114 | Alan Rosie | I've just started outdoor climbing, this venue is easy to get to from Edinburgh and a good level for beginners. It would be a sad loss to fill in this venue which has kept generation of climbers happy |

| 116 | Malcolm Airey | Rosyth Quarry is a very useful resource in the area, used by climbers, (personal and instructional groups), dog walkers, mountain bikers, ramblers, and many others. The central belt has relatively few disused quarries as suitable for climbers of all ages and abilities, and it would be a shame to see a great one lost. |
| 117 | Michael Green | They wouldn't consider bulldozing a park or football pitch why should a climbing venue be worth less? |

| 119 | Dermot Logan | Important local climbing venue. Would be a loss to the area |
| 120 | Sean Rivers | Have climbed here a couple of times and on both occasions saw lots of kids having a great time being introduced to the sport by parents, friends and instructors. This quarry serves a great deal of people, especially beginners to the sport. It would be disappointing to lose this great resource for at a time where our government is trying to get more kids fit and is touting Scotland's abundance of extreme sport activities on TV adverts. |

| 122 | Peter Hemmings | I do not want to see the distruction of the Quarry.
This is a well know venue and is ferquently visited by climbers. |
| 123 | Mark Lydon | Heathy & Cathy are central belt classic climbs! |
| 124 | Duc Le | |
| 125 | Isla Miln | This would be a travesty for many ! I have very fond memories of starting out climbing here and I'm sure many others have similar memories . Although it is not a landmark crag , I feel it still has a valuable place in Scottish climbing - especially for those starting out .
I live in the states now , but still feel strongly that we have little enough rock in the lowlands area that can be climbed on - so I really hope it is saved . |
| 126 | George Allan | A popular climbing venue which must not be lost. |

| 131 | Anonymous | As a novice climber I just recently discovered Rosyth quarry and have been fortunate to recent some tuition there from fellow climbers. I hope to continue to use the quarry to increase my climbing competence. |

| 134 | Craig Burry | Rosyth was the first outdoor spot that I climbed at after moving down to edinburgh. It is an INVALUABLE spot for beginners to progress in an accessible location and for those in the Edinburgh & Fife area to get outside and climb on a summer evening.
Aside from climbing, I wonder where the quarries other regulars will be going if this area is back-filled?
This is an opportunity to secure a great wee spot in the outdoors; it's up to local climbers to take a stand against the decimiation of areas like this and preserve the opportunity for climbers, particularly beginners, to experience climbing on real rock in the outdoors in their local area. |
| 135 | Sarah Magee | I strongly feel that it would be a great shame if this quarry were not available to climbers in the future. |

| 138 | James Magee | I learnt to climb here, would be a shame to lose the facility |
| 139 | Nick Horder | The quarry must be kept open for climbing. |
| 140 | Alistair Montgomery | I implore Wimpey to preserve a valueable public recreational amenity of the quarry and ask them to tastefully landscape it and save the clibing on the quarry walls. |

| 143 | Tomas Frydrych | Rosyth quarry has been the place where a friend introduced me to climbing many years back, and I have never looked back. This is about the only climbing venue in the Central Belt that has enough short, low grade climbs for a complete beginner to be introduced to the sport and to learn the basics, and its loss would be felt gravely. |
| 144 | Ross Hewitt | |
| 145 | Graeme Walker | It would be an outrage if this important climbing venue was lost forever.
This can not be allowed to happen |
| 146 | Kai Ivalo | Rosyth quarry offers a great introduction to rock climbing. In this day and age of obesity, poor diet, video/computer gaming addicts and limited facilities for sport, I'd have thought that the protection of a wonderful local resource would have been a simple decision to make. Don't get rid of it, protect or even 'invest' in it. Use your imagination as to what it could do and bring in for the local area. |
| 147 | James Richardson | Having climbed at Rosyth Quarry over the years this venue provides an easily accessible climbing venue in the central belt: the edinburgh area in particular has few worthwhile outcrops. |
| 148 | Anonymous | Rosyth Quarry is a valuable resource for introducing old and young to outdoor pursuits. It is especially useful as a venue for those learning to climb. It is time planners realised that they cannot just go on approving more houses without considering that the people in the houses already built and approved need access to recreational facilities. THey are diminishing the latter at the expense of more housing. |

| 150 | Neil Anderson | I value this quarry as a place to rock climb |
