UKC

100m, 5 pitches.

Rockfax Description
(Piano Dealer Lund's Route) A bit disjointed but lots of nice climbing with comfy stances, often VERY busy with beginners and groups - check before you approach if you want a clear run at it. Start by the telegraph poles, below a left-slanting corner.

1) N4, 35m. Climb the corner, then slabs and a short steepening to a big ledge on the right.
2) N4+, 20m. Climb up cracks on the right then smear up a slab on the left to reach the right end of the hand-traverse. Pump up this to another big ledge with assorted belays.
3) N4+, 20m. Traverse right along a fault and climb through a bulge to gain a steep groove. Go up this and a short jamming crack above to a good ledge. A great pitch.
4) N4+, 10m. The Peace Mark Pitch - climb the short awkward crack (at least N5 if you can't jam) or the left-slanting flake to a big ledge system below the final tier. The short crack to the left gives an alternative (N4+) if you want to bypass the traffic jam that often forms here.
5) N4+, 20m. Climb the centre of the face to bulges, then head up and left to thin cracks for a good finale. The awkward finger and hand-crack on the left gives an alternative finish - N4+. © Rockfax
