Geocache Description:

On the edge of Reach Wood, in the old clunch pit, this is Darcey's first Geocache. The clunch pit is a long disused old quarry that the local building stone (a sort of soft limestone) came from. It is open to the north, and delimited along the southwest and southeast by a steep slope and, unexpectedly for the edge of the Fens, some old stone cliffs. The cache is hidden at the base of these cliffs. Take some time and you should also find some fossils.

The cache is in a clear/blue plastic sandwich box. When created it contained some dice, a model footballer, a little purse, elastic guitar capo, pencil and pencil sharpener (please leave these) and log book. The box should be camouflaged so it won't be found by accident. If the camouflage has been removed or damaged please report it and I will fix it. The ground near the cache can get overgrown in summer. If access is getting difficult please report this and I will cut it back. Some stretches of the paths approaching Reach Wood can get pretty muddy in the winter, so wear wellies if it is wet. The cache is not a long walk from the road, so would combine well with a walk along the Devil's Dyke .
