Takes the direct (and best) line through the large high roof between High Brow and Stiff Upper Lip. Start towards the RH side of the sandy cave above which the rock quality is superb. Big moves up to the lip are followed by a tricky high rockover/mantel to finish.

Definitely root ... ! This looked really great; I was itching to try it yesterday but was saving myself for my own project, which I then repeatedly bottled in a very cowardly fashion.

To hijack Tom's thread briefly, on this same buttress I sometime ago reversed Artful Dodging from the jugs under Oliver, finishing up Two Egyptians. The crux is the same set of moves as on the original but they are definitely harder in reverse: Bodgers Delight, 7A+

Forgot to say thanks for the spot Andy...
It was nearly a day of double new project success, with Andy coming close on his Harmers highball....

I was going to call it "Ye Olde pump house" ;)
