42m, 2 pitches.

Rockfax Description
A fine climb but it sees little attention.
1) 4c, 20m. From part way up Crewcut, follow the ledge out right to reach the large corner and climb to the ledge above.
2) 5b, 22m. The main angle gives an excellent pitch when clean, though it is often grassy, to just below the top. Finish by a wild hand-traverse out to the right arete. © Rockfax

βeta: The main corner of the top pitch has been cleaned April 2025 (not the final exit ledges or the wild hand traverse). This is currently the best E1 pitch on millstone that you haven't done.
