βeta: A brilliant expedition 20 minutes walk from the middle of the city. Take a good amount of water and percy pigs. Some gardening (secateurs/shears/loppers) on pitch 8 would go a long way, but currently still doable wearing kevlar or via a detour up and over a big flake of death.

βeta: Vegetated pitch (p8) massively overgrown, quest through the brambles. also a large amount of very loose rock directly above p7/8 belay, take care! end of p9 is also somewhat falling apart. p9 and 10 totally nails for E2 5b. p9 also much worse for second, with a hard and runout section of downclimbing, a lot of faith in avon pegs needed.
