Access issues

None, always treat the area with the utmost respect so it stays this way.

Approach

When reaching the end of the approach track for the Shady & Sunny Side, instead of heading up the initial slab towards the Shady Side walls look to your right, scramble up via a toppled block then head diagonally up along the base of the slabby buttresses past the route 'Namaste' and the bottom of the Balcony gully.

After 30m there is another quick scramble up a metre high ledge, climb up then continue diagonally up for another 100m along the base of the slabs until a path through the scrub deposits you at the base of a large face running up the hill. This is the lower tier of San Fran.

Ethic inherited from The Church

Stay on established tracks and avoid damaging any vegetation in this area. - DO NOT go to the toilet on any of the ledges, take a walk down to ground level and bury it or better yet go before you get there. Give the holds a brush when lowering to minimise chalk build up.
