Geocache Description:

The cache is placed at the Edge of Rudyard Lake. The cache was also near GC1VW8P but it only lasted about two weeks. So
this is a better cache and should last a long time.

History

Rudyard Lake was constructed by the engineer John Rennie, for the Trent and Mersey Canal company in 1797 to feed the Caldon Canal.On June 26, 1846 the North Staffordshire Railway successfully took over the canal company and lake as part of one of its acts of parliament that resulted in the formation of the North Staffordshire Railway. A claim to fame is that John Lockwood Kipling and Alice Macdonald, parents of Rudyard Kipling, met here on a trip from Burslem. They liked the place so much they named their son after it.

Parking

Parking is avilable right next to the cache to get to the car park you need to go down a small road just before Beat Lane meets the A523.

The cache

The cache is in a small lock and lock box.
