Grandpas Treasure - there be gold in them hills II Traditional Cache

This cache has been archived.

Phillimore Clan: Sadly the cache has now gone so time to archive and open the area up for someone else. Many thanks to all who visited.

By their own admission, Maccee did not find the cache so found log deleted; a throw-down does not constitute a find!

Geocache Description:

This is a replacement cache for the original "Grandpas Treasure" cache. Slightly easier but you will still have problems with tree cover so I have again included a spoiller picture.

The cache is located in a small area of overgrown woodland, near to Grandpa Phillimore's house. If you spot him please be careful as his grandchildren don't call him Grumpy for nothing . The name of the nearby village "Hordle" is a short form of "Horde Hill" and refers to the hill now known as "Golden Hill". The name is thought to derive from stories of pirate activity in the area and a cache of treasure buried in the hill. So... if you search very carefully you might find a second cache, but no clues for that one I'm afraid.
