Previously, incorrectly named Superstar. Seven metres to the right of the stone wall is a corner split by a deep crack. Climb the centre of the wall on its left, to a shattered bulge, then step left to avoid this and finish to the right of the twisted yew tree.

The deep crack in the corner.

Between the corner and the erect pedestal on the right is a right-leaning crack which leads to a bottomless groove. Climb the crack, or the enjoyable slab on its right, into the groove. The upper reaches are yew-shadowed, but surprisingly clean and pleasant.

A poor route in the back wall of the bay behind the erect pedestal and obvious by its name.

Climb the bottomless corner and the hanging crack in the grooved arête on the right of the pedestal, then step right at the top to a bolt belay. Abseil descent to avoid damage to vegetation.

Start at the left side of the white wall of Armada below the small roof a three metres. Pull over the roof and climb the square-cut pilar above, then finish over the bulge at a short crack. Bolt belay.
