βeta: ***Sizeable block has come off from the rest area ***. I pulled it off while leading and came away with a bruised/sprained ankle. Very luckily the block didn’t come out with me but we removed it later via lowering it down as it was very very loose and a huge risk to anyone on or around the buttress.

βeta: Downgraded in the most recent BMC guide to E1 5b, but it's going to make a real battle for people trying it at that grade.

βeta: According to the BMC Stanage guide, this is E2 5c - a far more believable grade for the powerful swing across the side of the roof. This is NOT HVS.
