15m, 2 pitches.
Situated at the western end of Limehouse Blues Cliff, the route initially follows a left leaning diagonal crack and continues up the right hand side of an arête to a ledge at the top of a pinnacle. The route is full of loose rock with gear sometimes marginal and run out in places, meaning care is required to test holds before weighting to reduce the chance of a slip and potential ground fall. To exit the route there is a short second pitch with good gear involving a traverse of a few metres to the right behind the top of the pinnacle, followed by a down climb finishing at the bottom of Exit Groove.

βeta: Relatively easy climbing but very chossy with some big chunks of loose rock. Test every hold before committing. Gear is often awkward, quite run out at times. Nice comfortable belay ledge but not an abundance of anchor points. | βeta? | |
