A quick cache near Otterburn Mill, makers of the famous Otterburn Rug.
On the birth of the Princess Elizabeth in 1926 Buckingham Palace contacted the mill requiring a small rug that would fit the royal pram.
It was impossible to make just one rug, so 20 were actually made. Mr Fenwick of Fenwicks of Newcastle, a regular client, saw the rugs and asked to sell them.
The Otterburn pram rug is still made today
The view from the cache is back to the very narrow bridge over the River Rede.
It is possible to park right by the cache, but only for a small vehicle, it is recommended that you park at the Otterburn Mill car park.
This cache was set for the Haggis and Penguins Borders Camping Event GC1M455.
