The name of Kay is noteworthy in these parts; John Kay invented the
"picking peg " or Flying Shuttle at the start of the industrial
revolution, and in the early 18th century, Roger Kay bequeathed a
sum of money for the foundation of Bury Grammar School for girls.
"Old Kays" was the name of the farm which used to own the area
of land now a designated recreation area, looked after by Bury
Countryside Rangers and also selected for the Family Tree Scheme,
launched in 1981, where families could donate money in memory of a
loved one to have trees planted. Local groups got involved too. The
trees thrived and are thinned out periodically to give them more
light and to provide a better habitat for wild creatures and
flowers.

The cache is a lock and lock box with log book, pencil and
