Description 

E2 5C Serth (welsh for steep) is surprisingly steep climb. P1 5c 28m follow the short, shallow, twin grooves on the arete just right of sunset crack. Follow cracks and grooves to a belay with a fix pin. P2 5b 24m Climb down to a sloping ledge/crack and follow across a steep wall on the right, climb up into the obvious groove above and continue up to a grassy ledge. P3 4a 12m finish up the cracked wall flake on right wall.

Location 

Descent: its best to climb to the top of the cliff and scramble down the eastern terrace.
