General:
Langlee crags and their neighbour, Housey crags, are small volcanic plugs on the ridge on the south side of the Harthope Burn in the Cheviot Hills. There are several short obvious routes, but the crag is not worth a special visit. It's worth taking boots along if you are already in the area.
