Geocache Description:

The cache is located on the tow path of the North Oxford Canal between Rugby and Braunston.

There are several footpaths in this area which can make a lovely circular walk through stunning countryside and along the tow path of the North Oxford Canal. Please note there is no pen in the cache.

The cache is located on the tow path of the North Oxford Canal between Rugby and Braunston. There are several footpaths in this area which can make a lovely circular walk through stunning countryside and along the tow path of the North Oxford Canal.

The Oxford Canal is a 78 mile (130 km) long narrow canal in central England linking Oxford with Coventry via Banbury and Rugby. It connects with the River Thames at Oxford, to the Grand Union Canal at the villages of Braunston and Napton-on-the-Hill, and to the Coventry Canal at Hawkesbury Junction in Bedworth just north of Coventry.

The Oxford Canal passes mainly through the Oxfordshire, Northamptonshire and Warwickshire countryside, and is often considered to be one of the most scenic canals in Britain.

The canal was once an important artery of trade between the English Midlands and London and was constructed by Oxford Canal Company hence the OCC!

Note:
Due to the cache being within 1km of a prison I have been requested by the reviewer to advise you that if challenged explain that they are Geocachers. This is very unlikely as the cache is half a mile from the prison and three farms fields away (not even within viewing distance) and on the public Oxford canal tow-path.
