Climb up the corner using small holds and stemming technique.

Casual Corner

Lofty

Start with hands on small but good holds just above the opening in the wall. Climb up and slightly left then back to center on small and sometimes slopey edges to the top. Top out and carefully walk off to the edge of the woods. Landing could be treacherous if you punted hard off the top as the remains of an old small wall are about 6 feet back from the base.

Many short boulder routes on the remaining walls of an old grist mill on the Uwchlan Trail near Dowlin Forge Road. A great place to train finger strength as most of the holds are good but small. In my experience there are no loose stones in this structure however that is subject to change. Some of the holds may have some crumbly mortar on them that needs brushing off. Landings are generally good and this makes for a good spot to get in a large amount of climbing on small holds without roping up. Be cautious as there is a metal rebar structure within the stone walls that shows in some isolated spots, but overall is not a concern.
