Had a message from Martin Brown when asking him about some dates and he said Andy Brown had done it, hes yet to reply with a date.
So this is quite interesting. Martin replied with this:
"I’m not sure when Andy climbed it. However, the grade didn’t change to 8B when the hold broke. Tim Clifford was the first to climb it after the hold brake and gave it 8a+ and it remained that grade for years, seems only in recent times it had the upgrade"
Good knowledge. Sounds like it should just be one entry not two. I believe the grade evolution (or lack of) is conveyed in the current description.
Agreeed, sounds like it's potentially gone from hard 8A+ to lower end 8B, if the difficulty has changed at all. Not enough of a gap to warrant a new entry.
