A Cache designed for Kids- if you're not one you may find the questions are too difficult for you.
The route from the parking area is flat, and could be negotiated with an all terrian buggy. The cache is at toddler eye level and is full of kids treats to celebrate Alexandra's 3rd Birthday. As this is a kids cache please respect this when you leave treasure behind.
There may be animals in the fields so keep dogs on leads. Dog walkers may be around, as may kids playing in the brook.
The village of Bosbury has a very interesting past which you would not realise if you just drove straight through it.
Bosbury is a village and civil parish in Herefordshire, England. It is about 8 km (5 mi) north of Ledbury. According to the 2001 census it had a population of 780.
The church, dedicated to The Holy Trinity, stands in the centre of the village and is of Norman foundation with some fine later medieval additions. The tower is notable for being one of seven in Herefordshire standing quite apart from the church, some considerable distance in Bosbury's case. This was for defensive purposes in the troubled border marches.
The village was most noted in the 19th and 20th centuries for hops, being the largest hop farming area outside of Kent. The local hop industry in the area is much reduced and many old hop yards stand empty or have been demolished.
The medieval bishops of Hereford had a palace at Bosbury (supporting the village's proud boast that in pre-Conquest times it was a larger community than the City of Hereford), and frequently held court there. The palace remains are on the site of Old Court Farm behind the church.
The Knights Templar had a base in Bosbury at what is now Prior's Court Farm, and there is a Templar grave stone inside the church.
The most notable dwelling, Bosbury House, is a substantial Georgian red brick building just outside the village.
Bosbury is also noted for its many black and white dwellings, some in the village, and several scattered throughout the parish in the ancient farms.
The Victorian novelist, Edna Lyall, is buried and commemorated in the churchyard.
Inside the church sanctuary, one on each of the north and south walls, are two fine examples of Renaissance Italian tombs, dedicated to members of the Harford family who lived in Bosbury throughout the 16th century.
CAN YOU FIND IT???- YES YOU CAN.....
To reach the cache you should park at the coordinates given (in front of the church- opposite the pub, which has a large garden at the back)
Follow the footpath along the side of the stream (wellies are a must and a firm hand kept on little ones)
Say hello to the cows in the field over the stile then continue to the co-ordinates you have worked out.
This is where you will need a child.
5Y° 5. Z43 N 2° 2X. 146 W
