Geocache Description:

A challenging Micro hidden at Packington Ford, near Coleshill, Warwickshire.

The old London to Chester road passed through Packington Park and can still be traced today at the River Blythe ford at Little Packington. This has been a favourite picnic and paddling spot. Nearby there is a Pack Horse Bridge whose centre span was swept away and has been repaired with steel and concrete. When it was decided to turnpike this road in 1753 the Earl used his influence to have the road diverted around the edge of the park. It followed what is the now the A45 to Stonebridge and then turned north as the A452 to Lichfield and the A446 to Coleshill.
