Rockfax Description
The beckoning roof crack is a bobby dazzler of gritstone jamming and is reached by the easy groove on the right, or better, and substantially harder the front of the rib to its left. Slam in the lockers and go! Only E1 5b for hoary hardmen. © Rockfax

βeta: Absolutely first class, starting the rib direct is probably E2 but the roof on it's own (ie. starting on the right) would merit E1 max. No jamming involved, very jugular. Worth the walk on it's own!
