Rockfax Description
A fine route up the left-hand side of the buttress. Start below a right-facing groove with a capping roof.
1) 5c, 30m. Start with difficulty up the corner and continue until just before the roof. Pull around to the left then climb up on good holds before traversing back right to a good belay.
2) 5a, 10m. Climb up and right to finish on the arete. © Rockfax

UKC Logbook Description
Start up Phoenix but pass the overhang to the L and continue deviously up the steep wall above, eventually bearing R to finish on the arete.

βeta: Ab tat above Oriole replaced and a ring added 3.9.24. The tat is now round a spike below a jammed boulder. There is a small ledge to stand on below the tat but need to climb down to it (possible to clip into the tat for the downclimb). The tat was previously round the jammed boulder but that doesn't seem particularly safe as the boulder is only slightly wedged in.
