Rockfax Description
Good climbing. A tough start above the low overlap gains easier but interesting ground. © Rockfax
UKC Logbook Description
A line of 8 bolts in the centre of the Quarry, three of which are particularly closely spaced above an obvious ached overlap. Thin at the start and tricky at the top. Those of a more nervous disposition are welcome to add more bolts to the easy middle section.
