The overhanging crack line marked as a project in the Deep Zawn section of one of the older Dorset Rocfax guide editions. Accessed from abseil down the groove project (to the right looking out of the chain/ carved steps) grab some good slots, ditch your gri gri/ harness (possibly the crux) and traverse left until below the crack feature and power up this (possible knee bar)
In hindsight it's probably easiest to setup a knotted rope and just dangle down this to the good holds in the horizontal break under the roof, as removing a gri Gri and harness whilst hanging on with one hand is epic
Would still be good to do with the full traverse in. Lighthouse Area

βeta: Might be easier to start from a knotted ab rope as getting your harness and gri gri off whilst hanging from greasy slots is a bit of a peck !! | βeta? | |
