Bathpool Micro Traditional Cache

This cache has been archived.

Hampk: Well sadly this one has had it's day. Those who found it will appreciate that the hide was quite fragile, those that didn't - it was hidden in a bark cavity about 5 feet off the ground. The bark has now flaked off the tree, so there's nowhere to conceal the cache.

I'm therefore archiving it, and will now start to look for somewhere else in Bathpool to place a cache, as it's worthy of one or two!

Geocache Description:

This cache is at Bathpool Park. Car parking can be found at N53 04.704 W002 14.415. Both paths are flat but one is more muddy than the other!

Bathpool Park is most (in)famous because of it's association with the Black Panther and the murder of Lesley Whittle. History aside, it's a really nice place for a walk at any time of year; a popular area for families and people fishing. Kidsgrove Dry Ski Slope is also in the grounds of the park.

The council has recently spent some money improving access and there is now a very nice children's playground which could neatly occupy junior cachers while seeking the cache!

The cache is a thin tube hidden in an area with a bit of tree cover, so beware issues with GPS signals.
