12m.
Start at cracks leading past a flake about 7m right of the corner (2m left of Hermits Hole) and directly in front of a large block. Climb the cracks to difficult moves passing and above the flake then step right 1m into the left of two thin parallel cracks and follow this to an insecure heathery finish. Lovely sustained technical climbing E1/E2. Well protected but gear is often hard to place, F6a+ with pre-placed gear.
Left hand finish: following the thin left-hand crack directly above the flake in its entirety offers insecure technical crack climbing at about E2 5c, F6b with pre-placed gear.
