Geocache Description:


South Cerney is a Cotswold village that lies alongside the Cotswold Water Park just south of Cirencester. It is split in half by the River Churn, which also winds its way through the many lakes on its way towards the River Thames. On the North Eastern side of the village ran the old Midland & South Western Junction Railway (M&SWJR) and the Thames & Severn Canal. This multi cache starts in the centre of South Cerney, but will ultimately take you out of the village to the ‘secreted’ cache. Parking in South Cerney shouldn’t pose too much difficulty.
