Number 4 on the topo.
From the pedestal in the middle of the wall go straight up following the line of bolts. Using the bolts drops the grade to about 5b.

First Ascent : D.Turner (Jun 1983)

It's only the move with the one finger pocket, but that's quite desperate. (or it was to hot that day) Nice to do a bolted lead in england!

A fantastic climb, well worth the effort.

Easy if you're tall - despo if you can't reach the big pocket with feet in the break. If this is the case you have to turn the finger pocket into an undercut and smear on the wall!
