The right-hand line of bolts gives a good little exercise. Maybe harder since the loss of a hold low down. © Rockfax

UKC Logbook Description
A short route with interest in the first half, straight forward easier climbing follows to the lower off. Worthy of a bash if you are on the terrace. It must be one of the last remaining lines on that section of cliff.
Start 8 metres right of Industrial Disease (midway between that route and Tea For One) at a dark grey wall with a low overhang. Interesting moves keep you in the centre of the wall.
A mono digit hole under the overhang may help gain the 3 finger slot up and left, with the following crucifix leading to small edges above. Easier climbing leads to the lower off.
An easier left hand start is a grade lower.

βeta: The direct route is now definately harder than 6a+ with a hold missing. From the 3 finger under pocket you can reach out left to a flake but stay mostly direct for 6a+. Try not to go too far left onto the 5b.

βeta: A large part of the rock has come off around the first bolt which im assuming would have a hold for it to be 6a+. Im 6 ft and managed to dyno to a 3 finger crimp prom the under cling. Id say high 6b or low 6b+. My 5ft partner who climbs 7a couldn't do it so it may need regrading now. One move wonder but still fun.

βeta: Looks like a hold has broken off just after the undercut mono - felt much harder than 6a+.
