21 | ★ Movin' On Up - with Michael Law | 25m | ★★ Very Good | |||
Great climb, would be pretty hard if there wasn't a rest half way. The top section gets a bit thin in places, everything is just not quite as big as you would like it.

15 | ★ The Arrow and the Song - with Andrew Stevenson | 26m, 9 | ★★ Very Good | |||

Lots of varied climbing, one of my favorite climbs at the crag.

|
||||||
21 | ★★ Starman - with Andrew Stevenson | 25m | ★★ Very Good | |||
Mostly easy for a 21 but there was 1 hard sidepull move down low.

|
||||||
19 | ★★ Mr Big - with Jack | 75m | ★★★ Classic | |||
Great climbing on the first 2 pitches and then the 3rd pitch in my opinion was the best. Just be careful with the 3rd pitch we had problems pulling the rope, would recommend taking 2 ropes as it says in the guide.
