Lovely to see this written up (although long may the crowds go to Bonehill!) - this area was my favourite bouldering ground when I was living in Plymouth in the 90s.
The No match for climb id:250817 at Down Tor was so named because it was considered to be technically British 6b at the time - it was considered to be at least as hard as the Hanging Flakes (f6B) at Cuckoo Rock.
Many of these problems long predate bouldering mats - so the landings used to be considerably worse than they are now.
