As bouldering continues to soar in popularity, we are in a golden age for indoor bouldering gyms. There are new climbing walls opening up every year.

There are a staggering 20,000+ climbing gyms worldwide, and 38 bouldering gyms in London alone. But, before there was 38, there was just one: Mile End Climbing Wall.
