Geocache Description:

This one is quite a walk and you'll need good footwear, allow about 1 1/2 hours for this one -you might need it!
You will be looking for a film cannister at the haunted Sallet hole mine which was a flourite mine in it's day - now disused. Here a ghostly figure wearing a long coat and cap has been spotted in the workings before vanishing into thin air. Please don't try to completely remove the micro, you'll see why when you get there.

Could this ghostly figure be the legendary highwayman 'Black' Harry? Black Harry was a notorious early 18th century highwayman.
He robbed the pack-mule trains between Tideswell and Bakewell. He was eventually arrested by the Castleton Bow Street Runners, and was hung, drawn and quartered on the Gallows Tree at Wardlow Mires.



If you attempt this one at dusk listen out for the clip clop of a horse and if you hear it, run - don't look back, just run as if the Devil were at you shoulder, good luck..........................

Please take note of the additional waypoints and pictures before setting out on this hunt - you may find you'll need them.
