A very good climbing ground that is becoming dirty and overgrown in places. It has honed the fingers and forearms of generations of climbers and is the home to many classic test-pieces. In this view the obvious edge (arete) is called The Knife, a difficult and bold climb graded E4/5 6a sometimes top-roped and led much less frequently.
