60m, 2 pitches.

Rockfax Description
The first pitch is a fine and pumpy outing. Start at the bottom of the slab, 6m left of the base of the Pegasus corner.
1) 5a, 30m. Climb directly up the slab to reach the base of the steep headwall. Pull up and gain a left-trending wide break and continue up the wall above on good holds to a small overhang. Pull through the small overhang and ascend directly to a stance and belay on a good ledge below a long chimney.
2) 30m. The long chimney/crack is followed all the way to the top of the cliff. © Rockfax

βeta: There is a nesting gull on the belay ledge at the top of pitch 1 as described here. Might be best to avoid this route in the nesting season. The nest is not visible until you are right on it. We gave each other a fright :)
