Soon. Last little project to clean up and move Roy's pink in-situ rope first. --Alan rosier (talk) 14:56, 5 July 2013 (BST)

"Pink in-situ Rope"... there's a route name there somewhere...!  ;-) --Tim Hoddy (talk) 16:21, 5 July 2013 (BST)

Is it just my pc.? The map looks askew.--Alan rosier (talk) 14:11, 2 August 2013 (BST)

Looks ok here. --Tim Hoddy (talk) 14:19, 2 August 2013 (BST)

Sorry Tim there's another route since sunday so Little Queen is number 4 on topo.Another could be squeezed in to foul up the numbers again but it's too hard pour moi.--Roy thomas (talk) 12:29, 1 October 2013 (BST)

I'll fix that soon. --Tim Hoddy (talk) 13:46, 1 October 2013 (BST)

tim, queen wall topo needs finishing now all possible lines have been plugged. the link up is the 6a+ which is numbered incore tly in the current version. Cheers. al

Is it simply a matter of renumbering the lines on the topo or do more lines on the topo need to be added? If the latter, would someone send me a proto-topo please? --Tim Hoddy (talk) 11:46, 19 May 2015 (BST)

OK... I've tweaked the topo... would someone check that it's correct please? --Tim Hoddy (talk) 14:31, 19 May 2015 (BST)

Spot on Tim--Alan rosier (talk) 12:32, 28 May 2015 (BST)

Needs merging in.

25m right of ‘right-hand wall’ is a short compact wall of good rock. There are two headpoint solos here which could be converted to highballs with mats. To avoid dismemberment by brambles it’s best to tow a rope and so abseil from the tree.

Three-ball Plant 6m E2 5a/b (27.4.2016)
Jam the right-slanting crack whereupon a run of good holds and pockets lead to a mantel onto a ledge aided by a pull on the thoughtfully-positioned ash tree.

Shit a Brick (layer) 6m E3 6b (27.4.2016)
The face right of the crack, unfortunately escapable. Starting 1.5m right of the crack make a powerful long move and then crank high left for the left-facing sidehold. Finish with left hand in the finger-slot on Three-ball Plant.
