14m. The centre of the weirdly-patterned slab feels a bit 'out there'. The rock might be a touch friable in places.

 Grab the Slab
15m. The excellent, blank-ish slab some 3m right of The Crack is often top-roped. Take small pro for the lead.

 Cracked Wall
16m. A pleasant wander. Disjointed cracks take you up to Rising Damp; nip leftwards along this, then climb the spidery cracks...
