In reply to Ramblin dave: Malbogies at HVS in Avon, devious path through an intimidating swathe of rock. Heidelberg Creature at Swanage is an imposing looking line for VS. Right Angle at Gurnard's Head at HS is a classic example of the genre you are looking for, the first ascentionist Iain Peters described it on the Forums a few months back, the story is well worth airing again:
"In 1966 I was unemployed, broke and staying at The Count House as a strictly unofficial assistant custodian. This was the swansong year for the Biven/Peck team: being young, reasonably fit and ambitious, I had repeated virtually all their routes at Bosigran, some of them solo, so was looking for a crag free from their long shadow.
One wet May afternoon, after a lengthy session in the Gurnard’s Head I decided to return home via the coastal path. There was a full Atlantic gale blowing and the foam was flying over the “neck” of the promontory. I could hear the waves thundering below so stuck my head over the top for a closer look. What I saw was a steep, dripping corner disappearing into the spray. It was one of those eureka moments that can happen in climbing. Here was the new extreme that would eclipse anything that had gone before on the coast!
As soon as the weather improved, I returned with John Gerber (not Bember as in the guides) a Harrison’s climber who had never been near a sea cliff before, a peg extracted from the first stance of Doorpost (no less) and a claw hammer nicked from the custodian’s store. The traverse went surprisingly easily although John was not impressed by the wave that caught him just as he was making the balancy move across to the stance. The rest, as they say is history, but my first reaction on getting to the top was one of disappointment: where was my extreme to end all extremes? Who would ever bother with a mere Severe albeit in dramatic surroundings?
Nearly half a century later, the route is still a must whenever I’m in West Penwith, in fact on the 40th anniversary we managed more than 30 separate ascents with climbers from the age of 6 up to 70+. (I made it up to the 40 with half a dozen solo circuits!)"
