16m.

Rockfax Description
Although this line only covers a small amount of independent ground it is still worthwhile. Start as for Hostile Witness. Pull up directly into the corner left of the overhang and take the corner to an overhang at its top. Traverse right around the arete to meet and finish as for Hostile Witness. © Rockfax

UKC Logbook Description
This route follows Oak Tree Zig Zag to below the upper overhang before hand traversing it out right. Moving around the arete leads to footholds, more gear, and a rest, before the final few moves of Hostile Witness are joined. Watch out for rope drag.

Paul Twomey, S. Scarbro 10/Aug/1989.
