βeta: Have climbed easier VS 4c's in the Peak District than this. Very good though.

βeta: I too thought this was stiff for the grade, but I have just realised that I finished it up the blank looking wall above and slightly left of the balcony rather than the ledge/corner/flake to the right which looked very easy. Good route.

βeta: Moves under the balcony are definately 4b, not least for effort. Very enjoyable route though, definately worth its star.

βeta: Technical grade of 4b should be included, considering some of the S 4a's nearby.
