This cache is in an Ammo Box and can hold larger TB's. Original
contents include log book, pencil and sharpener (please do not
remove) A pet water bowl, St. George's flag, tissues, 2005 date
book, dream catcher, children's book, dog ornament, coffee cup and
a couple of collectibles.
Please note the co-ordinates on the back of the geo-cache note
as they are for the bonus ZODIAC CACHE. This area is alive with
both wildlife and muggles so please take care when retrieving and
replacing the cache.
The walk to the cache site is mostly buggy and wheelchair
friendly. However, you will encounter stiles and the path gets
rougher the closer you get. The GPSr signal will also come and go
under the tree cover, depending on the time of year you do this
cache but should be good when you get near the final site.
A big thanks to the Shropshire County Council and the wardens of
the Countryside Commission for their permission and assistance.
