LONG DESCRIPTION:
This is a multi-cache with the answers to questions yielding the final cache coordinates. The cache is Eco-based and was placed by Chevening CEP School (an Eco-School in the area). The `Rec` refers to the recreational park space. The village is sandwiched between a beautiful piece of countryside with lakes; and a very busy road network. The ‘Rec’ play area is in this quiet village and yet positioned only a few meters away is a motorway junction. You can see the signs through the tree cover at the back.

WARNING - Best not to try just after 3.30 as the park may be busy with children and parents.

Eco-linked swaps would be most appreciated.

Also, there is a book of Eco-tips. We would be very grateful if you could spend some time reading some tips and then add your own if you have any others. Many thanks.
