I think we've hidden this Cache too well, sorry to those who couldn't find it. We've checked the Cache and it is still there so we've added some more clues below, hope these help.

After a couple of 'No finds' we revisited the Cache to check it's still there and O.K. which it is. This Cache is under some trees so your GPS might not produce exactly the same co-ords as the ones listed. We have added another clue, for those who still can't find it.
Update: 31.03.05
We've just been down to visit the Cache and replace the box, other than that the Cache is intact.
Update 27.06.05
New log book added.
Just reflecting on how long this Cache has been hidden, we placed it in the early day's of Geocaching in the U.K. when there were only a few pages on the U.K. site.
Smile when you visit one of the longest hidden U.K. Cache's 8-)

We haven't visited the cache for some time now, we undestand that the stile has been replaced with a gate but the fencing is still as it was when we hid the cache. Will need to have a walk out there sometime.
Update: 11.11.12
After a couple of DNF’s we decided to visit the site, there has been quite a lot of tree felling around the cache and plenty of visits from cows so it’s no surprise that it appears to have been ‘spoilt’ 8-(
We have replaced the cache and moved it to a more secure location, we haven’t amended the coords as it is only a couple of metres from it’s original location and many were looking in that area anyway ;-)
We have included a very obvious ‘spoiler’ in ‘Additional Hints’ so there shouldn’t be any excuse for not finding it 8-)

Update: 24/02/13
After the last visitor had reported the log book being wet we decided to make a visit, we've replaced the log book and the container.
Someone has taken the pencil !!
Will the next visitor please take a pencil to leave in the cache - Thank you.
