Climb the chimney for 8m to access the imposing crack in the left wall. Plug in a sustained series of solid jams (except when green) to final tricky moves way out left. © Rockfax

βeta: Brushed the end bit of crack and removed lots of moss. Start looked still green but should be OK?!

βeta: 10/7/22 exit completely coved in moss, pulled loads off on lead, turns out there is a crack under the moss but didn't realise till after I'd tumbled off backwards. Good effort that this was done the day before with no chalk and without removal of any of the moss. Still extremely dirty as ended up going home after this. Should have stayed to clean up for next time and remove my sour grapes out of the crack. Was so bloody close and wasn't that hard an exit once the worst of the most was removed just jamming in a crack full of soil instead. Bitter for being so shit all the time.
