Rockfax Description
Good but slighty fluttery climbing. Enter the smooth yellow-flecked groove from the left (peg), and move right with difficulty to a jug. Climb up to a large ear-shaped flake, then continue up easier ground, stepping right to a lower-off beneath the bushy cornice. © Rockfax

βeta: Ripped some holds off at the start but didn't seem to matter too much. Peg isn't amazing but was confident with it tied off. Dirty above but gear and holds are there if you can find them.
