The magnificent Eliminates Wall, one of the most intimidating bits of grit around, is home to arduous crack climbs from the 50s and desperate face climbs from the 70s, 80s and 90s. Apart from The Peapod, queues are unheard of! Guidebook page 307.

The Left Eliminate 12m. The left-hand crack is short and 'ard. The same grade as Toy but this one sees a lot less attention. Gaining the narrower... 2 user comments | 1 Stars Strong Graunchy | E1 5c |

The Zone 18m. Climb the smooth wall right then left, by desperately fingery climbing, which may (or may not) be protected by two... | 2 Stars Technical Pumpy Crimpy Fluttery | E9 6c |

The Peapod Top 50 18m. Quality. A short slippery crack leads to the base of the pod. Back and foot up this with increasing difficulty. Arguments... 17 user comments | 3 Stars Technical | HVS 5b |

Peas of Mind 18m. The blunt right arete of The Peapod is sustained, unprotected and, except for the obvious method, inescapable! | 1 Stars Fluttery | E6 6a |

The Shape of Things to Come 18m. The impressive face climb between the two biggest cracks. Passing a runner early on, climb the face on finger holds to the... | 2 Stars Crimpy Fluttery | E6 6b |

The Right Eliminate 18m. Do this and Great Slab (in a pair of Woolys' pumps!) on the same day to get a measure of the skill of the Master. An... 8 user comments | 3 Stars Strong Graunchy | E3 5c |

Drummond Base 24m. Climb the slim groove immediately left of Linden, crossing rightwards past another groove to finish up Linden. | 2 Stars Technical Fluttery | E8 6c |

Linden 18m. Brilliant climbing, despite the dodgy drilled holds. Make a very hard move to leave the block and gain the dodgy flakes... 1 user comment | 3 Stars Technical Crimpy Fluttery | E6 6b |

The Grey Area 24m. Start as for Linden. From the nuts climb diagonally right (crux) to gain Hurricane (gear). Continue direct. | 2 Stars Technical Fluttery | E8 7a |

Hurricane 24m. A gripper but less so than when it was graded E2. Climb Scroach to below its jamming crack then teeter left to gain a... | 2 Stars Fluttery | E5 6a |

Scroach 22m. From the tip of the tombstone, make a baffling (feels 6a until sussed) step round into the shallow groove, small wires are... 1 user comment | 2 Stars Technical | E2 5c |

Hercules 12m. The wide crack is a good warm-up for the Eliminates if you squirm it, and it might just make you change your ‘sports-plan’... 4 user comments | 1 Stars Strong Graunchy | E1 5a |

Alpha 10m. The groove just right with a jutting tombstone is a bit of a contrast to most things hereabouts, though it still requires... 7 user comments | 1 Stars Graunchy | S 4b |
