Rockfax Description
The centre of the wall has a fierce direct start, often avoided by a traverse in from the left. Continue direct passing the large chunk of rust to hard final moves. © Rockfax

βeta: The start from the break reaching to the upside down-hold is easily 6c and makes a cool boulder problem (the hardest in the quarry?).

βeta: The original start did a horrendous start at the centre of the small sidewall, but others have shuffled in (as on the Low Traverse). As it is still hard right to the uncertain very last move, I would think it a stiff lead for the grade.
