Accuracy Sector

To the left of Helter Skelter the wall is divided at half-height by a prominent ledge system. From this spring a quartet of very worthwhile sport climb a whilst to the sides lie a series of longer, more traditional routes. This section of cliff also supplies the easiest routes on the main crag.

11. In My Hour of Need E1 5b
Series of shallow grooves and direct up slab TR. New belay added and retrobolted.

12. Home is Where the Heart Is VS 4c

The face now swings down and to the left to provide the final bit of crag.
