14m.

Rockfax Description
14m. A popular eliminate that is a bit of a soft touch, but varied and superb. Climb a thin crack to the end of the initial crack on Z Climb, then continue rightwards into Central Climb. Follow this until it is possible to pull on to the wall on the right where a shallow flake/groove leads to great finishing holds. © Rockfax

UKC Logbook Description
Left of Central Climb, climb to the top of the jam crack on 'Z Climb', using a thin crack and a black flake, follow the crack that slants up into 'Central Climb' for a couple of metres. Near the top step right to a thin flake in a groove and follow this to the top.

Arthur Dolphin, John Cook. 23/Apr/1946.

βeta: Sorry to disagree boys. Although it is an eliminate, and therefore escapable, it is in my opinion still the best E1 on Yorkshire Grit. Name me a better one?

βeta: definitely not top 50. A few variants on a VS, strung together.
