Endangered Yellow Wagtails are currently nesting on Butt Hole Scoundrels - Fr. 6b+ (Line 3 on SWCW). Please avoid climbing in the Scoundrels Cave area until the end of September, and keep an eye out for others until then.
They migrate from Africa to the UK around March till September, so will hopefully be on their way by October.

Now with lots of bolts.
Crimp up the lower wall to a good rest. Climb the headwall to a fingery and technical crux.

βeta: Loose block has gone. Loose flake just below 6th bolt is just waiting to explode in your face but it's easily avoided by using a good undercut and spanning past it. | βeta? | |

βeta: Large loose block 1/3 way up. Makes route hard trying to avoid. Also, flexing crimp about halfway up. Critical hold, that will snap off if used. Not sure route can be climbed in current state? | βeta? | |
