Geocache Description:

This bridleway is private. Please do not drive down it, there is on road parking at the top of it or alternatively car parks in Heptonstall village. This can be done as a stand alone or part of a circular walk. The cache is a small clip box.
There is no need to move any stones in the Dry Stone wall to find the cache

The circular walk goes through the nature reserve of Colden Clough.

Please stick to the footpaths and be mindful that this is a nature reserve.

We would like to thank CMBC for giving their permission for caches to be put in this area.

The caches on the circular walk are:

Crown Point

Lumb Bank

Chimney

Garlic

Clapper Bridge

Causey

Holly Bush

If you look up the track you will see Lumb Bank which is an 18th century mill owner’s house that stands in twenty acres of steep woodland.
The house once belonged to Ted Hughes the late poet laureate. It is now used by the Arvon Foundation who run writing courses.

We have put a good hint due to tree coverage.
