Good climbing on mostly good rock, maybe worth a star, not many 16s in the area.

#	Ewbank	Length	Trad
1	16	40m	Yes
	Follow the ledge system rightwards from the base of the buttress until a steep move can be made past the overlap. Move up and left and follow a crack system up the front of the buttress to a sloping ledge and BB.
2	15	30m	Yes
	Carry on up the continuation of the crack system. Go up a groove or step left onto a ledge on the arete and follow the exposed arete. Both options lead to a step through an overlap to the final short wall to an awkward BB just over the top of the face.
