This is the Third in a series of ten cache's in the grounds of Margam Park. There is no cache smaller than a 35MM film canister. There will be clues in some not all of the cache's to a 11th Bonus cache.
Phew! the first tough bit of the series take a break at the top and enjoy the view across to MP004 and MP005
Geologically the park lies on the coal measures. The typical vegetation of the coal measures at lower altitude in South Wales is woodland dominated by oak, birch or alder. Before the last war much of this woodland remained within the park and the bare slopes of its eastern end were clothed with woodland. During the war, the national need for timber led to deforestation of the slopes, and the landscape changed.
The relative freedom from disturbance and the wide variety of habitats have encouraged a diverse and abundant fauna within the park.
Among the more common mammals to be seen are deer, foxes, badgers, hares, grey squirrels, voles and shrews. Moles are abundant on the lower parts of the park, their presence betrayed by molehills.
