Rockfax Description
Start at a grass ledge under the centre of the wall and climb to a higher ledge. Move left to a groove which leads to a third ledge. Finish up the thin crack in the wall behind. Sadly the shady setting means it is almost always green and grubby. © Rockfax

βeta: Good, slightly bold climbing with a definite crux and a big feel. Like its neighbours Pinstone Street & Lubric this is now perfectly clean after decades of heather-choked obscurity.

βeta: Have been cleaning this, Lubic and Pinstone street. Until cleaning work completed there will be much soil on and around the base of the climb. Aim to finish the work in the next few weeks. Until then I apologise in the unlikely event anyone gets on this. A dangerous block at the start has been removed, some cleaning is still required but the climb is now probably best approached directly into the groove from below (E1?). However potentially now of reasonable quality as near fully cleaned. At the top it is possible to finish direct or slightly left rather than off right, all options have been cleaned.
