George Wimpey are bulding houses close by and are planning to back fill rosyth quarry in the near future. This is a great local, easy access venue for rock climbers across the central belt. It is especially valuable for introducing beginners to the sport and has been climbed on for over thirty years. This valuable resource needs to be fought for so help save the quarry and support the clean up day on the 14th June (from 10am) while you are at it!!!

The momentum behind this campaign shows that the climbing community refuses to lose such a vital local spot. Now is the time to reach out to your local representative and demand they oppose the backfilling plans.

What a joke. There is plenty of space elsewhere to build houses without ruining a perfectly good climbing site.

My kids learned to climb here. Its one of the only places nearby for beginners to actually get outside. DONT DESTROY IT

Used the quarry for years. Cant believe they want to ruin it for more boring houses. Leave it alone.

Great spot for local climbers. Need to keep this open for the next generation to enjoy.
