18m.

Rockfax Description
A good pitch that takes on a fine corner-crack. Start at a right-facing flake crack 10m down from the top of the ramp. Climb the corner past some difficult moves midway, to where it ends at a short steep headwall. Traverse right to better holds and easier ground leading back left to belays. The short headwall can be climbed directly via a long move at 6a. © Rockfax

βeta: Big block about 3m up now worrying loose. Would not pull on it! and certainly no gear behind it, extra care needed if others on the ramp to! Pro above and below available, although avoiding it is 5c?
