Geocache Description:


This is a series of eight caches and one bonus dotted in and around Bedford. With many of the caches you will be in a very public place so please be discreet when retrieving and returning the cache and ensure they are well
hidden.

One thing that I have noticed when maintaining the series and reading the logs is that the caches are not always hidden discreetly. Please take extra care to ensure the caches cannot be easily seen by muggles when returning them.

The caches are not in any order so if you’re going for all of them you’ll have to plan your route.
Each container has a different a letter on the inside of the lid. You’ll need this to find the bonus cache. Note down the letter along with the number in the series the cache is.

This cache is off down a path from Biddenham. There seems to be parking right along this road but I'm unsure as the school entrance isn't far away. I cycled here, often the fastest way to travel in Bedford. Your best bet to enter the path is at N52°08.270 W000°30.066 but if you have a bike like I did you can enter at N52°08.279 W000°30.033. The second way you will go past a field where I've seen all types of animals kept from cows to sheep and I've often seen a fox trotting about here. The path can get slightly muddy. You may not want to do this one during school lunch breaks as you will be caching along side the school field.
