Small is Beautiful at Burbage North

Surely this is neither vert, nor crimpy! Been a while but isn't it slightly overhanging and yarding between decent holds?

almscliff for pebble wall - pebble ratting at its finest!

Climb it well and you don't even have to use the pebbles  ;) kind of fits the bill being vert and techy at least.

Little Greenie at the Cliff too.

Few things at Caley might suit. Edge Wall, Creme Egg Eliminate, The Pinch, Rick's Rock (slight highball) and Forked Lightning Crack.

It’s ever so slightly overhanging but still a good wall climb and there’s definitely a few crimps on the first two moves, once you’ve done that though yes it’s basically moving between fairly decent breaks.

Wharncliffe is deffo a good shout
... Facetime Continuum stand start 7a

I'd agree with this suggestion. Good vert crimping (not too high) with the sitter to try if it goes well.

I thought that was about 7C.
