FA: Steve Bancroft & John Allen, 1976

FA: Joe Brown, 1957

Gain the chimney by an awkward start. Bridge it gracefully or thrash up the depths.

FA: 1913

FA: Don Whillans, 1950

Another vintage classic. Climb the fluted crack at the right hand end of the wall, past a ledge, to reach a fine pulpit stance. One can finish up great chimney round the corner on the right but it is much better to step back down and traverse left to the finishing crack of the left hand (awkward 4c).

FA: 1947

Round to the right, the fine chimney offers numerous variations including climbing either corner direct or by the full bridging for its entirety. The usual way is to climb the left corner to the pulpit, then transfer to the right corner for the upper section.

FA: Siegfried Herford & Stanley Jeffcoat, 1913

The fine airy flake corner in the right wall of great chimney. Gain it via either of the cracks below. Take big cams.

FA: 1951
