Geocache Description:

Unfortunately we are no longer able to maintain these caches.

If you would like to adapt them and keep them running please let me know.


Because this follows the Monarch Way, it is not a circular walk but can be approached from either end of the indicated stretch.
We have created 24 Monarch Way caches heading North from Wick to Horton. This series has now been taken further by OOK the Librarian to Hawkesbury Upton, with more caches to come in due course. This is a continuation of the Southern series of caches from our original beginnings at Wick Court. We will continue these until it gets beyond our reasonable range when we will seek another cacher willing to take the series further with the ambition of covering the whole Monarch Way in time.
Monarch Way is the 615 mile route used by King Charles II after the Battle of Worcester in 1651 when he was pursued by the Parliamentary forces under Oliver Cromwell. Charles first travelled north, where he hid in the famous oak tree at Boscobel. He then travelled south through the Cotswolds and the Mendips to the South Coast at Charmouth, and finally along the South Downs to Shoreham from where he made his escape to France. Bitton church still bears the scars of Cromwell’s troops using it for target practice!
This cache is suitable for wheel chairs and buggies.
You do not need to deviate from the marked Monarch Way. You are looking for a medium sized screw top container.
Initial contents:
Logbook
Pencil
Father’s Day GC replica

If proceeding to the next cache, turn right at the war memorial cross in the church yard. Go through the kissing gate, turn right and then left after 25 yards.
