	Marc Bolan Memorial Arête, 19	19			1.02
The rounded arete between Corkscrew and Escalade. Good wires in Escalade for the bottom half, and two marginal RPs just before the top crux - quite bold and sustained. Some people move onto the right-hand face at about half-height for a few moves - somewhat easier and allows better pro (by stepping right to the escalade pro crack).
	Uncompromising Vulture, 22	22	10m		0
P1 22 10m Trad Climb the first part of Sword in the Stone then move right below overhang on small under-cling hold and up (crux) to climb the short corner. Adequate pro.
	Thick as a Vulture, 23	23	12m		0
P1 23 12m Trad Climb Uncompromising Vulture to the lip of the roof then hand traverse right to a large block. Scramble onto this and finish as for Thick as a Brick. A good route.
	Rampart, 17	17	13m		1.02
P1 17 13m Trad The thin crack in the slab right of Rawhide. Quite delicate moves on hand holds in the crack. Subtle pro placements which run out.
	Rawhide, 18	18	13m		1.02
P1 18 13m Trad The arete right of Escalade. Delicate balancy climbing on good holds. Pro only by leaning left to Escalade – not for the faint-hearted. Sustained.
	Sword in the Stone, 16	16	10m		1.02
P1 16 10m Trad The prominent crack through a small roof at the left of The Cave. Jam or use the secret hold past the overhang (crux), then move easily up the corner. The first part of Rampart can be combined with the second half of Sword to give a grade 15 route.
	Corkscrew, 20	20	7m		1.02
P1 20 7m Trad From the ledge, move right and up the steep wall to a good layback hold, then straight up and over the top. Small wires all over the place. Sustained.
	Escalade, 16	16	13m		2.01
P1 16 13m Trad Climb onto pedestal, then up the groove, moving right at the top. Good pro in the right crack. Sustained. Alternative direct finish (18) not so well protected during crux. True diehards can climb just the protection crack (19/20).
	Gumby Snot, 18	18	0m		0
P1 18 Trad Layback crack left of Corkscrew.
