Rockfax Description
An eliminate making most of the gap between Lyme Cryme and Robert Brown originally climbed in one long 50m pitch with side-runners in adjacent routes in places. Follow Lyme Cryme to the bulge, then pull through as for Brompton's Cocktail to a rest on a rib. Climb direct to a flake then move right and climb the wall to the Delicatessen traverse. Continue to a ledge on Debauchery and keep going up the white wall to join the left-hand finish of Robert Brown. Follow this then head direct up the juggy finishing wall (Fantasia). © Rockfax

UKC Logbook Description
A monster eliminate taking a direct line that makes the most of the rock between Lyme Cryme and Robert Brown. Has some great climbing

Follow Lyme Cryme to the bulge and pull through it as for Bromptons Cocktail then gain a standing/resting position on the rib to the left. From here climb direct with difficulty to gain a two finger pocket then short flake with a peg. Climb up the flake and stand on it. Lean left to put some cheeky siderunners in the crack of Lyme Cryme. Move right to a narrow ledge then climb the grey wall (as for Happy Hour) to the pockets on the Delicatessen traverse. Stretch right and place some disappointing runners in the flake to the right then keep climbing the wall directly with trepidation (poor spike runner) to gain a small but welcome ledge on Debauchery, PR in thin break above. Pull past this to a downward pointing bent peg then climb the white wall above to a flake with a PR (the wrong finish to Robert Brown!). Make tricky moves up this and to the break, PR. Finish direct up the juggy wall above.
