The Wall
In 1995 the Sports Centre built a climbing wall with help from lottery funding, costing over £60,000. The wall has four sections, including an Arete Wall, an Overhang Wall, a Ledge Wall, and a slab. There is also a bouldering section known as the Cave.

Famous quotes containing the word wall:
“On Wall Street he and a few others—how many?—three hundred, four hundred, five hundred?—had become precisely that ... Masters of the Universe.”
—Tom Wolfe (b. 1931)
“Knowledge of Rome must be physical, sweated into the system, worked up into the brain through the thinning shoe-leather.... When it comes to knowing, the senses are more honest than the intelligence. Nothing is more real than the first wall you lean up against sobbing with exhaustion.”
—Elizabeth Bowen (1899–1973)
