Geocache Description:


This cache is in memorial to the Ashtons Circus. Geodad got to know the circus family some years back and then not long after we moved up to Nundle the circus came up to Hanging Rock for a week to celebrate 150 years of the Ashton Circus. Why Hanging rock you ask? Because in this very little and forgotten cemetary is the grave of Mary Ashton the wife of the founder of the Ashtons Circus.

The Circus even brought their elephants to Hanging Rock however the trucks were to big and heavy to tow them up the pass so they had to walk them up the hill. Poor elephants as that is quite a climb. Any way the Ashtons have since split up and become there own little Circus’s and I don’t believe they have the elephants anymore but their memories will live on through the cache and its visitors. Be sure to read the plaque about the history of the Circus.
