Geocache Description:

An easily accessible cache in the grounds of Farnley Hall Park.

Park up in the car park at the given co- ordinates and enjoy a walk around the park area before venturing into cache land at the top end of the park and the woods.

Farnley Hall Park, the origins of which can be traced back to the Domesday Book, is a remnant of landscaped parkland, surrounded by pastoral fringe farmland and housing. In addition to its historical importance, the Hall and surrounding parkland provide a much valued diversity and interest in the landscape.

Most of the area is contained within the old estate boundary wall, which remains remarkably intact. Outside the wall, the estate includes adjoining agricultural land. To the north east lies an area known as the "Fish Pond".

Formal lawns and gardens lie within the ha-ha (see below), containing a number of large, open grown trees and to the south west of the house, smaller ornamental trees and shrubs predominate, backing up to an internal boundary wall, providing a walled garden effect.

Ha Ha
A boundary wall, normally found in old country park gardens, consisting of a ditch, with a wall on its inner side below ground level. This provides a physical barrier to keep livestock out of formal grounds whilst allowing uninterrupted views over a pastoral scene.

This cache forms part of Farnley Wander a circular walk bringing you back to the car park.
