Geocache Description:

This is a trail of 7 caches following in the footsteps of Dylan Thomas and the theme of Under Milk Wood.
Dylan completed seven major poems as well as Quite Early One Morning and a number of film scripts while living at Majoda.
Also while here he started to write Under Milk Wood, where he drew upon New Quay for the names of many of the characters and places according to the topography.

Brongwyn Lane could have possibly been Dylan's inspiration for Under Milk Woods' Goosegog Lane.
This lane was once a favourite walk for courting couples in Dylan's day and went all the way to Majoda.
Along this lane stood Maesgwyn Farm and its orchard where they kept a dairy herd of cows and sold their milk. The sea has now claimed the farm and the path takes you to Traeth Gwyn beach
This cache can be accessed from the beach and up the new metal steps at low tide (check the tide tables if you choose this route) or down from Brongwyn Lane.
