4m.
Follow the runners' trod to a wooden gate below Clougha. You can see a few prominent boulders up to the left, further on past the Hill Side and Gully boulders. One is the Project Boulder in Lancashire Bouldering. Below this is the striking Platypus Boulder, with an obvious duck bill sticking out.
Start crouched from a shapely jug below a triangular crack formation, feet on the narrow foot of the wall. All rubble/steps/footledges are out. Work up on good holds to gain the beak. Traverse left to the steep side of the boulder. Avoiding a wide vertical crack and everything to its left, work up the steep face to top out.
A SDS should be possible at a similar grade if you have a mat (I didn't).
