Another forgotten place so near to civilisation. This was once
where one of the many thoroughfares for the area crossed the Gwili
river. Some roads flourished into the main road network we have
today, others fell into disuse.
The cache is a conventional tupperware hide in a not that
untypical hiding place and started out with many goodies.
Be warned - although it appears on a map that you can drive
almost to the location of the cache, there's very little turning
space near the ford.
And besides being listed as a ford, I don't think anything other
than farm vehicles is now capable of crossing there unless you're a
very daring 4x4 driver (though Matrix prove me wrong - but then
he's a daring 4x4 driver!) - the road is listed as a dead end from
both directions.
One word of warning - some local motorcyclists use the route as
a shortcut, despite the footbridge only being a public
footpath.
This cache is close enough and quick enough to find to be
considered as a cache and dash journey break, being only a couple
of minutes off Junction 48 of the M4.
