The furthest right of the lines on the Battleship Back Cliff itself are less popular, but very good and well worth a look should those on the more popular areas be occupied. Guidebook page 125.

Lost Army Expedition Tough in the top groove and a bit run-out to boot. 1 user comment | 1 Stars Fluttery | 6c+ |
2 |
Scapa Flow A technical test-piece. Precarious groove climbing with nowhere near enough footholds for the right foot. 4 user comments | 2 Stars Technical Pumpy | 6c+ |
3 |
Koenig Class The prow just to the right of Scapa Flow is climbed via a wandering line, but has some good, hard moves. | 1 Stars | 7a+ |
4 |
Raise the Titanic The open groove is a tricky proposition, and has a number of blind moves. Finish at the lower-off of Scapa Flow. 1 user comment | 1 Stars Technical | 6b+ |
5 |
The Price of Silence A pleasing and very popular route. You need to search around a bit on the top section for the best finishing holds. 16 user comments | 2 Stars Pumpy | 6a |

Wave Dodging This is a bold pitch if climbed direct - 6c+ indirect. 1 user comment | Technical | 7a |

Sink the Bismarck Quality climbing. It is possible to finish on the ledge of Wave Dodging, but if you add the extra 5m it is probably worth 6c+.... 2 user comments | 1 Stars Pumpy | 6c |

Big Fish A tight line featuring three hard sections, though it has good rests in between. Finish to the right of a blank section. 2 user comments | Technical | 7a |

Electrically-Injected Shed Head One of this wall's better routes. Good pocket pulling. 3 user comments | 1 Stars Technical Pumpy | 6b+ |
13 |

14 |
Shallow End of the Gene Pool An extended boulder problem followed by an easier finish. | 1 Stars | 6b+ |
15 |

16 |

17 |
The Cones of Stress A poor eliminate to an old lower-off. | 7a+ | |
18 |
