Team Microdot: With no small amount of sadness, today we've been around the SBE series lifting the caches and now we are archiving the series [:(].
We would dearly love to keep this series going, but not just for the sake of it. We've thought long and hard before coming to this decision.
The main reason for archiving is the appalling state of the Public Footpaths between SBE3 and SBE5 due issues arising from land drainage, livestock and horses. Much of this section is now a complete quagmire which is not most people's idea of fun. We've asked Lancashire County Council who are responsible for the paths to do something about their condition, but our pleas fell on deaf ears [V].
We'd like to thank all the cachers who went out and found the caches using various techniques, for sharing your experiences through some excellent logs and for the Favourite Points you've bestowed upon the series [^].
And all that remains now.... is to hit the archive button [xx(]
