Tregagle's Crack >>
[Stretch!!, 1 kb]13m. A very popular climb that provides a rewarding way up the crag and into the ruined tower. Start below the wide corner-crack. 20m. Climb the corner and then move out above the right wall past a small patch of gorse to a crack that leads back left to a point where a finish can be made between two summit blocks. © ROCKFAX
Start 20ft left of the chapel ladder and climb to the top of the smaller rock to good holds on the buttress. The left hand of two narrow grooves at 15ft is followed up and around to emerge high on the south face where a 15ft traverse left leads to a crack which slants back right and leads to the top. Variation: Climb direct to top instead of traversing.

Ticklists: West Country Climbs.

The description above is incorrect and is for South East Buttress. The correct route is following the wide crack at the left hand side of The Lord Falmouth Slab. Follow the crack to top of slab, continue to the top on good holds. Pleasant warm up.
