Geocache Description:

700ml clear tupperware container, large enough for swaps, bugs etc. Initially contains F2F prize.

This cache was originally destined for Broadwater cemetery, but unfortunately we could not get permission, so now it lives here, near the 'Midsummer Tree'.



As recently as the 19th century, it was believed that on Midsummer's Eve skeletons would rise up from the Midsummer Tree and dance around the tree until dawn when they would sink back into the ground. This oak tree is said to be around 300 years old. The legend of the Midsummer Tree was first recorded by folklorist Charlotte Latham in 1868.

Should you also wish to visit the cemetery and some of its interesting tenants, there is some information inside the cache and its only a three minute walk to the waypoint listed below.

The cache should be approached from the direction of the Midsummer Tree. It has rather specific cover, so please try and hide it carefully again after finding.

This is our first cache hide, so we hope you enjoy it.
