Although this problem is one of the worst and most minging things I have ever climbed on I needed to finish it off.

Usually, you’ll go out and do something that you’re pleased with. And then that instant people will ask “how was that?” You don’t really know, you’re just pleased you’ve done it. I did think about that when I was in Rocklands this time because I flashed quite a hard thing. I kind of went up there, had one go, and climbed it — which took what like 30 seconds? But you’re always asked for your opinion on this sort of thing at the very instant that you’ve done it. It misses out on the 20 years that have led up to that point. Which is, well, a lot more of it.

Ned started in a slightly different place to the FA.

First re-ascent after a heel hook that was used on the FA snapped off.

It definitely feels harder now than it did with the heel spike. No idea on the grade. Maybe hard 8A+. But very high quality however hard it is.” said Ned after the ascent. [1]

This leaning buttress of pristine Staffs grit, away from the fleshpots of the busy Roaches circuit, sports a couple of low footholds, some inviting looking overlaps and not much else. It's seen attention from various parties over the years, not least Ben Moon back in the 2000s, but it finally fell to Ned Feehally on an April morning this year after many visits.

Normally if it takes Ned umpteen sessions on a multi-year project, with various custom modified rock shoes being tried, you're guaranteed a hefty grade, but this one seems to be struck by the "feels easy when you do it" gritstone curse. Hence the suggested grade lies in the 8A ballpark.
