Road names in Berkshire reflect the
rural economy of the area:
Drift Road was an important route for
driving livestock, Hazelwood Lane from coppicing for hurdles etc,
Hog Oak Lane after the thousands of pigs that rooted for acorns on
common land in autumn, and Spinning Wheel Lane, reflecting the
importance of the wools spun and exported from Berkshire to
Europe.
This cache is one of three we laid for the Binfield Bank Holiday
Cache Bash 2006, and takes in part of Hazelwood Lane, to the north
of Bottle Lane. The cache is less than 1/2 mile from the suggested
parking spot, which has space for around 3 vehicles. Please be sure
to leave enough space for horse riders to gain access!
The cache is not intended to be difficult to find.
Enjoy the walk.
