Geocache Description:

This is number 8 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.

This is a Hard won cache located at the far end of the park, whichever way you go its up hill.

You do not need to enter the location the Co-Ords take you to.

The monks of early Britain were particularly adept at coal mining and this mine took coal from the Rock Face seam.

In order to get the coal out the monks would dam the mine so that the mine water flooded to a level sufficient to float a boat loaded with coal to the entrance with men pulling on ropes.

Also on the plain below are hummocky ridges which are formed of glacial rock, sand and gravel.

The gravel has been extracted over the years and used for various purposes on the Margam estate.
