3 pitches.

Rockfax Description
A very pleasant and airy trip that traverses the crest of the point from its seaward end to midway along the ridge. Originally the route continued to the Compass Tower but due to rockfall the ridge is now very unstable and not recommended. Start at the toe of the ridge on the south side of the narrow zawn at the end of the point.
1) 25m. Follow the easy-angled stepped ridge to a ledge and belay at a boulder bridge.
2) 30m. Continue along the narrowing ridge to its high point and descend from here. © Rockfax

UKC Logbook Description
This is almost the same route as Troy, with a less interesting finish/! Pitch 3 now crosses some very unstable ground - not recommended.

βeta: Very easy, just a couple of moves of diff and some exposure at the top. Abbed off the top of the second pitch; pitch 3 doesn't look at all pleasant.
