Scanned from half-tone image in my Peak book, not directly from the original Hasselblad transparency.

This shows the correct/normal route. I've tried to get UKC to correct the description several times, without success. Instead of climbing the nasty crack formed by the left side of the boulder, step on to the front of it from the left side. Nice balance climbing on perfect rock. [Still Hard Severe.] From the top of the boulder, as before, up short wall, traverse R to R/H arete, and up to the fine little summit using flutings. Awkward short overhanging descent route adds to the fun.
