Tree Buttress 14m. Climb the tricky rib on the left-hand side of the bay, then balance right to the tree. Finish up the steep flaky crack. | 1 Stars | VS 4b |

Midas Man 8m. The wall left of the tree, via a short crack and a long reach. | Reachy | E3 6a |

Tree Climb 14m. A good sharp-edged crack leads to the tree. Continue up the steep crack, awkward to access, behind the woodwork. 1 user comment | HS 4b | |

Tree Neighbour 14m. From the tree, step right for some traditional chimney fun! | S 4a | |

Third Time Lucky 14m. A scruffy crack (or, better, the start of the previous climb) leads to a mini-Inverted V. The leftward exit is the crux. 1 user comment | 1 Stars | VS 4b |

Gom Jabbar 8m. The hanging arete is unprotected, fingery and hard. A sensible side-runner stops a ground fall but not hitting the ledge. | 1 Stars Technical Crimpy Fluttery | E8 6c |
