Roddlesworth Ramble Traditional Cache

This cache has been archived.

Geotrotters: After visiting the cache site to do a maintenance check, it would appear that the cache has indeed gone. The area is now overgrown compared to when the cache was first placed and I think that it's now time to bring this one to an end.

Thanks to everyone who have visited the cache, whether found or not found, and for all the great logs. Thanks also to Markandra for marking it as one of their favourites.

The area is still a great place to visit for a walk and there are plenty of other caches in the surrounding area.

Geocache Description:


Roddlesworth and Darwen Moor form part of the West Pennine Moors, lying just south of Darwen and Blackburn. The three reservoirs at Roddlesworth, which are linked to the Rivington system, lie in the valley of the River Roddlesworth surrounded by some of the finest woodland in Lancashire.

The area offers a variety of routes for walking, cycling and horseriders, whilst remaining a valuable wildlife habitat.

The cache can be found in Roddlesworth Woods in Tockholes (pronounced Tockles).

A small selection of Photo’s of the area can be found at www.pbase.com/lisae/roddlesworth_woods

Whilst this isn’t the only cache in the area it is the first cache (as far as I am aware) where the actual co-ordinates are listed on Geocaching.com

The Parking co-ordinates are for the Roddlesworth Information Centre & Café. The cache is a small tupperware container containing a few small items. Please ensure it is sealed and re-hidden as it can be quite damp around the area at this time of year.
