I had a tip off a while ago about a roof project at Piper's Crag, a little past Swastika Stone's, on Ilkley Moor. It a small but nice crag with some worthwhile problems, inculding "Champions Once Moor" (6a/6b) climbed a while ago by John Hunt.

Piper's Crag can be found on Yorkshiregrit.com:

I did two new problems which can be found on the "Shepherd's Refuge" Boulder.

Asylum (7b+ ish) starts at the back of the roof and climbs the hanging nose of grit directly, using slopers and heel hooks. A really superb problem. It may be a bit easier than 7b+ as we grasped the opportunities to climb in between showers.

Asylum left (7a+ ish), again starts at the back to gain the obvious flake in the middle but then continues left to an obvious pocket and finishing with a tough move to the break.

Here's a crap edit of those probs:

Geeky but you can use the forum itself to specify the size of the picture with by specifying "width=###" and "height=###" arguments to the opening [ img] tag as this dumb example shows....
