Please do not steal the stamp from the cache, it is NOT a swap and should not be removed.
All the caches can be done individually or in sequence, and once you have located the first four caches you will have the co-ordinates for the final bonus cache. Make a note of the letter and number on the inside of each lid as you will need these for the bonus cache co-ords. (The one in this cache is C).
All five caches are letterbox hybrids, containing a log book, stamp and pen (ink pad removed Jan 2017 as they have been leaking in the caches - please bring your own ink pad if you want to use the stamp). Stamp the log book with your own stamp or leave a calling card or sticker if you have no stamp. If you have none of these then feel free to draw a cartoon of yourselves! If you have your own log book you can stamp this with the cache stamp, but the stamp is not a swap, please leave it in the cache!
There are some small items in each cache; but as the containers are small there is limited room for swaps. However, small TBs and geocoins can be left. The five caches are:
1 – Mount St Bernard Abbey
2 – Blackbrook Reservoir
3 – White Horse Wood
4 – The Old Railway
5 – Bonus cache
White Horse Wood is a 9.3 hectare ancient woodland home to many common and rare native species. It makes a nice spot for a picnic if you’re walking the whole route to take in all five Charnwood Letterboxes.
Please ensure the cache is well-covered with sticks and leaves before you leave.
If not parking at the monastery and walking here, parking can be found in the layby on the A512 at N 52* 45.601 W 001* 18.205. Please take care when crossing the road as the traffic travels very fast.
