This cache replaces a nearby cache Sezincote Stroll 4 - Hinge Post which was muggled in mid march.

The troupe of Morris Men at Longborough, one of the many local villages they visit during the summer months.

The first settlers arrived in the hills above Longborough 5,000 years ago, and built the Long Barrow after which the village takes its name. Human bones have been found in a quarry nearby, as well as large prehistoric animals. There was a Romano-British village within the parish to the east of the Fosseway. At the time of the Domesday Book there were three manors in Longborough, the largest of which belonged to the King. They later passed to the powerful Mortimer family. In 1256 two of the original manors were given to Richard, Earl of Cornwall and King of the Romans. Richard's son, Edmund, gave the land to Hailes Abbey, who threatened to dispossess the villagers in favour of sheep.

To find this cache you will have left Longborough and be heading on the Monarch's Way towards Moreton in Marsh.
