Geocache Description:

A simple traditional cache located near the village of Pimperne

This cache can be accessed from a number of directions using the footpaths either from the stud farm in Pimperne, which we recommend and are where the parking co-ords take you, or from the pull in on the A354 opposite collingwood corner.

The walk takes you to the Pimperne long barrow which is one of the largest in Dorset, with a length of about 350 feet and a breadth of 90 feet. Like many other Dorset long barrows, it is parallel-sided rather than wedge-shaped, and it stands a fairly constant 8 feet high from one end to the other. The barrow dates from around 4000BC.

When placed the cache was full of goodies and toys from our christmas crackers, along with a few joke cards.
