Geocache Description:

This cache has been set for "the man who has everything"

PLEASE NOTE - DO LOOK OUT FOR THE MAN IN THE Land Rover, he said
"he is the shoot organiser, and doesn't like GEOCACHERS"
PLEASE KEEP TO PERMISSIVE PATHS, thank you

After parking up by the Tab cache, you will walk past our Wild Boar and The Princess and the Frog caches.
Keep on walking down the permissive footpath and you will soon come to a strange feature at the side of the footpath (take a look at the photos).
GZ is next to this fenced off section at the side of the path, it has two stone pillers (they look like old gate posts!!) in this fenced off area - very strange.
There must be a good story behind this feature, it reminds me of the
"Horses leap"
The Boss has found out what it is in the (achives), thanks Dave

In short it is the resting place of "Captain Edward Morgan"

Quote -
Some years ago a person of strange curiosity open the grave, and found a skeleton. On the head was a red cap, I think of velvet, and round his neck a silk handkerchief. By him lay his sword, and his helmet; and beneath the skeleton two bullets, which had fallen out of the body on its dissolution; all which verify the report of his having been slain in battle, or in some skirmish during the civil wars , and that he was interred, according to his wish, under the spot on which he fell. In collection of pedigrees lent to me by
Thomas Griffith, esq. of Rhual.
A bit more history if you are a genealogicalist
