Side note: I have moved from area and can not maintain it. However the point is to get people to view the area so I am not archiving. Located in a quiet rural village. There is a brief walk through the village; the terrain is flat. This is our first cache, hopefully more to follow. There are nettles on the path so shorts are not advisable. Depending on the time of year you will either come across cattle, horses or nothing in the feild.

To get to the cache you have to negotiate a field with cows in the summer. There are 2 entrances from the road side, both are sign posted as a footpath. In the summer there is alot of nettles so long trousers are adviced The cache is a small lunch box containing bits and bobs. There is a log book and a pencil provided.
