P1 only. The crux was really difficult especially because of the polish and awkward angle of trying to get up onto the ledge.

Chris Sansum - AltLd rpt - 29/Aug/09 with Chris Waite, Matt Lunn
Interesting for a HS, first pitch has the sting especially if you are short, but footwork overcomes. Pitch 3&4 not worthy, but lovely wooden sign to show (and allow) climbers out over private ground is appreciated. (Must drop off a thank you card - we need kind landowners like this)

Due to route finding error I lead up an HVS (Gryke) passing the crux before I realised my error. I traversed back onto the route and continued to the stance. Nick couldn't follow the 4b crux of the proper line, so I abseiled down, top roped the first part of the pitch and set up a stance just above the crux to talk the others through it.
