P3: 6a+/b 30mtrs

P4: & P5 have currently been left as trad due to there overgrown nature

Note: A minimum of a 60mtr rope is required and access to the climb can be gained either by the low diamond access line or but following the new upper access line in/out with two 30mtr re threaded abseils which are directly below each other. To abseil off the second pitch belay of gemstone a 80mtr rope is advised.

Extra care is required both on access to and from the start of the handline due to the grass slope. The hand line can be seen next to the two small twin caves above the lower diamond abseil point.
