The groove right of the low cave gives technical climbing on small holds. It is becoming harder as it gets polished. © Rockfax

βeta: Very easy apart from the start which is often wet and polished. Just about worth doing.

βeta: Is the person in the Northen Limestone photo of this route really on it, or are they on Darken Shield?? Not sure myself but would be inclined to believe the latter.

βeta: Did this the other day to check the 6a grade we used to have on here. The route certainly has changed in the last 10 years and it is probably now just about worth 6b. Fairly sustained and often on small holds but never desperate or too pumpy.

βeta: 6b. Sustained and technical, but thankfully not too strenous
