15m. The striking roof crack above the start of Achilles` Heel is as good as it looks, but unfortunately it is often dirty. Climb the groove to the overlap and bridge uncomfortably over it then move right to below the crack and power up it. (c) Lancashire Rock

A direct start to this route is also possible (and probably more logical) by climbing the start of Footsie and then continuing upwards straight through the top crack. This does not change the grade. Reported by Colin Stuart - May 21.
