Rockfax Description
The exposed slim corner in the arete of the headwall. Belay under the line using the viewpoint railings as a belay anchor. Climb the corner and pass the midway overhang on the right to reach a slab. Climb the crack right of the arete to finish. © Rockfax

βeta: BEWARE ROCKFALL The large block described on a fall from Clotted Cream is the key block that did form the crux of this route. There is now a very large dirty alcove with a sloping floor. Grade is now harder if done direct though the alcove, but easier VS ish? Finish is possible by stepping back right and up from the first projecting block then heading up leftwards to a similar finishing position as the original. A sad loss of one of my favourite Torquay quarry climbs. | ||
