Please note Use of geocaching.com services is subject to the terms and conditions in our disclaimer.

Geocache Description:

RELOCATED approx 500ft North of original position during May 2010 due to it being disturbed several times. PLEASE REMEMBER THE CACHING RULE. If you take something, please leave something. Located just inside Piper wood, The initial gravel lane is suitable for pushchairs albeit a little bumpy at times. The early part of the grass section is on a slight incline, but would probably require a pushchair to be carried depending on time of year and height of grass.

THIS CACHE IS NOT ACCESSIBLE FROM THE M1 - leave at J23 - see parking location below. Green and Pleasant Land? Planning permission is currently being sought for 2 golf courses to the left of the gravel track, and a 400 bed Hotel between the wood and the M1 motorway. Enjoy before the surrounding countryside disappears.
A small parking area is located at the end of Oakley Road where it meets Field Avenue, next to a playing field. (Including a small playground for children)

Location N 52 46.858' W 001 17.414'

Look out for the Heron's often seen to the left of the lane.

If you continue along the public footpath after the cache, there is a newly planted (and perhaps short term) meadow section with lot's of wildflowers (depending on season) Eventually you will see a path across this section leading to a footbridge over the M1.

There are lots of footpaths leading throughout the wood which locals use regularly and clearly marked public footpaths surrounding it.

You will pass two streams so please keep a close eye on small children.
This is a dog friendly route, but please clean up as necessary afterwards.
We hope you enjoy the area.
