Geocache Description:

A park and short walk cache located within the grounds of the Abbey Sports Stadium in Redditch. Cache is easily accessible adjacent to walkway.

Parking readily available at the Sports Stadium and cache located within the grounds.

Easy access on level ground to within a few feet of cache.

Nearby is the Forge Mill Needle Museum. This historic site illustrates the rich heritage of the needle and fishing tackle industries. Models and recreated scenes provide a vivid illustration of how needles were once made, and how Redditch once produced 90% of the world's needles.

On the same site, just a very short walk from Forge Mill Museum, are the ruins of Bordesley Abbey - a medieval Cistercian Abbey which has been extensively excavated. Bordesley Abbey Visitor Centre, which is set in an original reconstructed 16th century barn, tells the extraordinary story of the Abbey from its development in the 12th century to its destruction in 1538 by Henry VIII during the dissolution.
