[Chapel Head Scar in continental conditions., 3 kb]13m. Nowhere near as bad as its name would suggest! The curving line of tufas just right of the large yew tree provide some big holds that rapidly diminish tantalisingly close to the lower-off which is located below poor rock and no decent holds. © ROCKFAX

Ticklists: Very good routes in the UK.

Very continental. At probably not much more than a dozen moves however, it's about a third of the length it should be. Good job from the trusty beta-monkey.
