<p><strong>The next three routes all start at the same point.</strong></p><p>Linear B and Maxfield Fryer Route start by taking a fairly direct line up the middle of the buttress towards the Field. Here, Linear B moves left to join the bottom of Pitch 2 of Slanting Grooves. The Maxfield Fryer Route crosses the Field, joins Route Major for Pitch 4, and then moves right again to the top. The Direct starts in the same place but takes a different route also to arrive at the Field. It then goes more or less directly up to join Route Major for pitches 6-9. </p><ol><li>36m Scramble up grass to the left of a very large slab. </li><li>27m Move onto the rib and follow its right-hand edge until crack leads to grass stance. </li><li>33m Climb a short slab to another grass ledge. Traverse left to a vegetated crack and up this to where it steepens into a corner. Cross the slab left on undercuts to corner and the start of another crack on the right edge of the slab. Two aid points used to gain holds on slab on the right, which is climbed to grass and heather ledge. The Maxfield Fryer Route moves right at this point. </li><li>30m Up on grass and heather to a better ledge directly above. Climb wall and continue up vegetated gangway to beneath overhanging corner. </li><li>21 m Move down to the left, step round rib and ascend groove to grass ledge. Move up left into little slab and step left into groove. Climb up a few feet, then step right and move up onto grass ledge. </li><li>12m Move awkwardly up short wall into crack between blocks and climb left to the pedestal on Slanting Grooves (Pitch 2). </li><li>105m As pitches 2-5 of Slanting Grooves.</li></ol>
