βeta: As far as i can tell the line shown in the topos in both the current BMC Peak Limestone South 2017 and Rockfax Peak Limestone 2020 are wrong. I belive Sagnation is closer to the line shown as Nocturne. Nocturne is actually to the right exiting left just under the main ivy patch. See older rockfax guides 2004/2012 for the correct lines and read the descriptions and they fit this, otherwise there is a 3 route which has been climbed for years to the right. Personally I thought the lefthand line was far better
