Rockfax Description
14m. The broad edge of the buttress, front on with bold and technical climbing - a tour de force. Climb the groove then trend left to the resting ledge. Move right a short distance then attack the upper wall. The climbing eventually eases, a looooong way above the gear. Finish by taking the well deserved crown. © Rockfax

βeta: Good contender for the hardest single move on a trad route in the UK. Not hard by modern bouldering standards but still incredibly impressive and proud climbing.
