Rockfax Description
An interesting link-up. Climb Porky to meet up with The Lord Falmouth and move up to its jutting ledge. Hand traverse the ledge right and swing along good holds, past the niche of Porky, to a ledge on the arete. Finish via some arete hugging moves. © Rockfax

UKC Logbook Description
Currently (12.07.17) a bees nest in the niche on Porky's - beware!

Start up the crack of Porky, continue left across the top of the slab, before traversing back right across the break, past the niche of Porky to a ledge and finish up around to the right of South East Buttress.
