Restricted Access
The best climbing faces are available to climbers but access is not permitted to the right of ‘Graveyard Gate’, (with the exclusion of ‘Meet Thy Creator’) to help protect rare plants.
Seasonal Restrictions
Reason: Nesting Birds
Please do not block the road to the crag - the land is shared with the Uphill boat yard and access may be harmed by inconsiderate parking.

UKC Logbook Description
Easy climbing leads to a small strip roof. Make a hard move (no corner on the left) to a thin seam. Move a fraction right and balance up on thin holds (avoiding any use of the good sidepulls on the E5 to the right) to reach a better hold.
More technical climbing leads to the break.

βeta: In reply to below, the small crimpy sidepull you described is definitely in, if it's not then it's definitely 7a+ | βeta? | |

βeta: I didn\'t use the obvious right juggy flake or any other side pull, but did use a small bit of crozzle left of the main culprit right side pull that you\'re eliminating. Having watched others climb in exact same spot Im taking the flash, open to feedback saying you need to be super direct | βeta? | |
