8m. Bridge the short wide chimney to the large ledge. Surmount the narrow projecting rock then take the short V groove. Top out using a tree root. Tree belay. Descend to the left next to the crumbling dry stone wall.

βeta: The route is gritty but clean enough with no vegetation. There is a substantial metre-long exposed tree root (visible from below) at the top out to put a sling round and pull on. The root is rotten at the right end but currently solid otherwise. The belay is a good tree a couple of metres back. The easiest way off is to walk to the far left and descend with care at the crumbling dry stone wall.
