32m, 2 pitches.

Rockfax Description
Start from the left end of the ledge (or lower if the sea allows).
1) 5c, 17m. Climb the initial recess for 3m, then move left into the groove and follow it, trending a little rightwards, to gain a shallow groove. Follow this to a decent stance below the roof.
2) 5c, 15m. A leftwards traverse brings you to a good hold on the lip of the roof; climb up to a sloping ledge, and use a thin crack to head for the top. © Rockfax
