On the 17th of May a fire which was caused by a BBQ at the top of Sewer Wall caused significant damage to the area. The rock has unfortunately been shattered by the heat on top of the crag and sparks from the BBQ which blew across the top of
the crag ignited a small yew tree and rhododendron at the top of the
gully between Starlight and Tempestivity. The fire spread for a couple of
metres around this area and halfway down the gully. In addition another smaller area was
burned on the other side of where the BBQ was situated. Reports are that the fire brigade attended
the site to deal and put out the fire.
In light of this incident and in addition to the no fires rule at Harrison, it is important to note that this very much includes BBQs. Anyone who is found using a BBQ at Harrison's will be asked to extinguish it immediately.
