This is the first ascent, first pitch, of Patience. Graded HS in nails!
In 1960, the RAF Valley MRT always climbed in nails on `dirty` rock.
This photo was taken during a wet, claggy afternoon. The top pitch was climbed the following day.

I wonder how many people are familiar with the word "clag" ?
