Better climb than I expected. Crux move near top is probably nearer 4c than 4a as others have said.

Lovely climb...Rockfax gives crux move as 4b...I agree but that may be because I'm not tall.
valentinesbabe - Lead O/S - 08/Mar/10 with Kevin Tithe

the top rock over move is harder than 4a more like aleast 4c, disjointed route
