63m, 2 pitches.

Rockfax Description
The long slab on the left-hand side of the hanging basin. The climbing is open but also serious, with minimal protection, and requires a steady leader.
1) 30m. Climb the middle of the slab to a belay on a metal quarry spike where the upper wall rears up. The climbing is straightforward but lacks any significant protection.
2) 4b, 23m. Traverse left to an arete and climb it to a ledge below the upper overhangs. Traverse right around the overhangs and climb easy broken rock to the top and a fence post belay. © Rockfax
