10m. The crack in the overhang above the cave starts off on perfect jams but widens to fist-size and then widens a bit more.

Having soloed up to the roof on this, and contemplated the next move, I strongly suspect that this route is nearer E2 or even E3 than HVS. It looks to be considerably harder than The Unprintable at Stanage.

Its HVS if you have meaty gritstoner's fists and don't mind getting then scratched. For weedy sports climbers it may indeed be E3!

Flared mossfest. About the same grade as the Unprintable, whatever that may be...
