Another list. At least two star HS routes (somewhere) and positions again based on current logbook votes. Again let me know if I've missed anything. A few routes look wrong to me so I've commented.

Bottom End VS:

Reveille (HS 4b) VS be+
Sunshine Cracks (HS 4b) VS be+

Top End HS:

Niche Wall (VS 4b) te+
Zeke's Route (HS 4b) te
Demo Route (HS 4b) te-
Kernyck (HS 4b) te-

Above Average:

Autumn Flakes (HS 4b) aa+ possibly a bit high.
Right Angle (HS 4b) aa+ I'd say this is below where it should be in the HS grade.. very committing.
Flannel Avenue (HS 4b) aa
Pegasus (HS 4b) aa

Midgrade:

Doorpost (HS 4b) m+
Terrier's Tooth (HS 4b) m+ as was now tough and bold VS after the rockfall.
Civvy Route (HS 4b) m

Below Average:

None

Bottom End:

Letterbox (HS 4b) be+ severe in the cc guide.


Likely Sandbag 2 star Severes:

Red Wall (HS 4b) just sneaks into HS on votes.


I'd add that in my view Land's End Long Climb (HVD) is at least mid HS for the top wall (possibly due to a fairly recent hold breakage)


Two routes fairly newly given HS dont have any votes as yet:

Bulging Arête (HS 4b)
The Dungeon (HS 4b)
