Craig Arthur Girdle E2 Lead 1962
First ascent. With some points of aid.
Sirplum E1 Alternate Leads | onsight 20th Dec 1964
First ascent. 2 points of aid.

...the on-sight first ascent of Sirplum used only two pegs for aid on the 2nd pitch 1st bulge, one being an in-situ rusty nail from someone’s previous attempt and one I placed above because the rock was horrific and coming off in handfuls. The other three were either for protection or to hang off whilst demolishing a five foot hanging flake which is now a pedestal. [1]
