Geocache Description:

This Cache is at Four Marks pond,it is an easy cache, this is a lovely pond and I suggest you stop for a bit a take some time to look round it.

In 1970 local people formed a society to reclaim Swelling Hill Pond, which has been in existence since at least the mid 19th Century and had become silted up. The restored pond occupies a secluded spot on high ground and provides a tranquil habitat for it’s abundant wildlife, walkers and the Angling Society. The pond is near the school. In the spring it is very nice because all the waterlilies flower. The pond is suitable for fishing as there are carp and goldfish but you need to be a member of the Four Marks angling club to fish there.
