45m, 2 pitches.
The crag lies below the summit on the SW flank overlooking Dungeon Gill. Where the path beside Dungeon Gill steepens then briefly flattens out (large cairn) scramble steeply up to the crag which is recognisable by a prominent square cut cave at the foot of a steep wall.
Start 15m left of the cave where a steep slab projects from the wall.
1. 15m 4a Climb the centre of the slab to a ledge.
2. 30m 4b Ignore the attractive rib above (Diff). Walk 3m right and tackle the steep blocky crack. This soon relents and easy scrambling leads to the summit.
