The building was an actual working water-pumping station before conversion, and its castellated Victorian facade is a listed structure, the centre now holds hundreds of routes and boulder problems across indoor and outdoor walls.
Local tip
Day pass plus shoe and harness hire covers a first visit; there's a one-off registration fee for first-time visitors, and the on-site vegetarian cafe is a good spot to refuel after.
