Geocache Description:


Maids Moreton Weir is located on the river Great Ouse and has recently been rebuilt having been undercut by the river in flood.

Maids Moreton is a village in Buckinghamshire, England. It is located about a mile (1.6 km) north of Buckingham with a population of around 500 people.

The parish of Maids Moreton covers about 1365 acres (6 km²), of which 376 acres (1.5 km²) are arable, 786 acres (3.2 km²) permanent grass and 26 acres (0.1 km²) woods and plantations. The soil is mostly clay and gravel and the subsoil gravel.

Through this field there used to run the Buckingham Arm canal. The Buckingham Arm ran from Cosgrove, Northamptonshire to Buckingham. It was built as an arm of the Grand Junction Canal, in two separate phases, opening in 1800 and 1801. It was disused from 1932, but was not finally abandoned until 1964. It is now the subject of a restoration project.

You are looking for a small Tupperware box.
