The Fell and Rock Climbing club was founded in 1906-07, and membership has since grown to well over 1000 members worldwide who found their mountaineering origins in the Lakes. Its aims are to encourage rock climbing and fell walking in the English Lake District and to act as a bond of union for its members. The club publishes a number of guides to climbing in the area, as well as a bi-annual supplement to new routes.
