UKC Logbook Description
Start directly between Lime Street and God with the crux moving rightwards through the overlap, protected by a poor microwire. Above has spaced but very good gear, with fantastic climbing. Move into Lime Street along the top break, to avoid the choss as much as possible. Finish at Lime Street stance.

Done on bolts in 1986 by Martin Roome but debolted in 1993. FA in current state by Matt Fry 21/Sep/2009.

βeta: Probably around 7a+/b with a tricky crux move which is reasonably run-out above a reliable wire and not overly far from the ground. There are options for higher but less reliable gear.
