Spindlestone Heugh History
The routes described here were developed by Ken Smith of The Wammeys club in the early 1980's and accidently misattributed in the NMC guide. A visit by Gordon Thompson at around the same time would probably have yielded some routes had it not been for the nest of hornets which put him in hospital.
