Ireby II fixed ropes

Does anybody know what condition the ropes up escelator rift in Ireby II are in? I was there a couple of years ago and they were getting worn, just wondering if theyre still usuable.

Cheers

Don't know about recently but about a year ago they were in a pretty bad state. Several sections had been isolated by knots.

Thanks for a reply, it would be a shame if those ropes became unusable, when I was there 2 or 3 years ago they were worn but generally not too bad.
