Description 

A potentially excellent area once it is cleaned up a bit. Consists of two 15 foot overhanging cliff bands with good landings and probably a dozen or so potential routes; maybe even a couple of classics.

Walk north up the road about 40 meters and you'll see the small cliff bands uphill. The lower wall, and upper (directly above it) are very similar in look and potential.
