I'm looking for a 6b/c wall, highball, overhanging a bit, like County Ethics but easier, quarried/natural grit, sweet moves, 3star, anyone suggest anything? prferably in lankyshire.

you could do worse than perfect day direct start. meets most of those criteria, expect its not in lanyshizzle, and only slightly highball, which is a bonus.

gardoms, just round the right (on the same block as) moyers buttress. its taller than it looks there, bearing in mind i'm 6foot and that right foothold is about face height on the floor. ~3 big moves on good holds. bout 7a+

the left arete at gibb tor (can't remember name but is hugely obvious)- overhanging beautiful arete with stonking moves from a stand up. The sit start is trickier and one of the best problems on grit no questions.

if only i had my trusty new peak bouldering guide book. stand up is a bit tricky, sit down is quite burly if i remember (with an ascent by sean miles wearing a pair of girl's knickers, which was nice for all concerned)
