Depot Climbing Nottingham grades, explained

Depot Nottingham is in The Tram Depot on King Edward Street, close to Nottingham city centre and seconds from the Curzon Street bus stop. It has 10 colour circuits graded V0 to V11+ reset weekly, a circuit board (French 6a–8b+/8c), a Tension Board 2, campus boards and a gym area. There is no on-site parking.

Bouldering grades

Problems are grouped into 10 colour circuits spanning V0 to V11+, and each wall has a display explaining the colours. Depot's website gives V-ranges only for groups of colours, not for each colour. So the ranges below are the group ranges the gym states, and the top circuits are not documented.
