FRCC Scawfell Guide 1924:

The most arduous ascent in the Lake District; unexampled exposure; combined tactics and rope engineering essential at one point; not less than three climbers. Rubbers…The difficulties met with are so great that the expedition ranks amongst the world’s hardest. [1]

Chicken Deluxe Sport route 9a+ 2

Formerly an 8c+ with a large number of artificial holds (~17). After being unrepeated for many years Lucien Martinez removed all but two of the artificial holds and reclimbed the line at 9a+ (or potentially 9b).

The remaining two holds were left because they were natural holds that had been reinforced, so removing them would have meant destroying the natural holds which would be equally artificial.
