<p>I am a local rock climber and wish to make an objection against one part of the proposed works to the firing range in Wilton 3 Quarry, Scout Road, Bolton. The siting of the 'New Classroom/W.C. is such that it will interfere with and make unsafe, climbing on the adjacent rock face. This is a popular beginners area with a number of classic and early climbs.</p>
<p>Without a gap of at least 5 metres between the proposed structure and the rock face, there will be the risk of falling climbers making contact with the container. The siting will also interfere with the belayer's ability to manoeuvre and maintain their own safety while their partner is climbing. I have no objections to the Gun Club improving their facilities - only to the siting of this particular structure. I am sure, given the overall size of the quarry, it would be possible to site all the proposed structures, while maintaining a distance that allows climbers access to all the routes in the quarry, safely and without restriction.</p>
<p>I am aware that, although this particular Quarry is owned by the Gun Club, there are deeds of covenant written in to the Land Registry's Title documents for each of the quarries giving a right of access to climbers. The proposed structure will limit this access. The Quarries, I also believe, are covered by CRoW legislation.</p>

<p>The basic objection is about the siting of the shipping container to act as a 'New Classroom/W.C.' Without a gap of at least five metres from the rock face (Orange Wall), climbing on that face will be severely restricted and unsafe. A falling climber could hit the structure and belayers have little room for manoeuvre in the case of falling objects or climbers. The quarry, whilst owned by the Gun Club has access provision for climbers through a Deed of Covenant written into the Land Registry's title documents for each of the quarries. and the area is covered by CRoW legislation.</p>
