walk tall: It's a lovely walk these caches cover but with the gamekeeper kicking up a fuss now, I don't want to cause any issues, so am now archiving this series. Cache box removed.

Geocache Description:



This is the tenth of fourteen caches set close to RAF Little Rissington on the Oxfordshire / Gloucestershire boundary, originally placed for a local CacheWalker Event.

Right next to the air field now and one of the buildings still in use. On the other side of this building is a go-kart track run by Rissington Kart Club who run meets spring to autumn, usually the first weekend of the month. There is also a firing range nearby which gets used occasionally.

RAF Little Rissington was built during the 1930s and closed in 1994 after an MOD review but the runways are still on the active list. The married-quarters and main technical site on the north side of the air field, were sold in 1996 which became Upper Rissington. The air field used to be the home of the Red Arrows and has been used for several films including Die Another Day (James Bond) where they filmed part of the car chase scene on the ice.

Please DO NOT remove the rubber stamp from the cache.

Remember, some of the caches have the numbers for the bonus cache.
