This cache is temporarily unavailable.

Hanoosh: Hi

This cache has been flagged to me as one that requires some attention by the cache owner as it has either not been found for a while or there is a reported issue with the cache.

May I ask that the cache owner checks the cache to confirm it is still in situ and/or deal with any maintenance required and/or give an indication of when it may be up and running again for people to find by adding a note to the cache page so that other cachers and reviewers can see what your intentions are.

The Geocache Maintenance guideline explains a CO's responsibility towards checking and maintaining the cache when problems are reported.

Once the cache has been sorted out, please enable it.

If this cannot be done or if you no longer wish to maintain the cache then the listing should be archived.

Sadly if there is no response to this log after 30 days I will have to archive the cache. In the meantime I am disabling the cache.

Please DO NOT send an email about this cache in case I do not receive it. Posting a reviewer note will ensure your cache does not get archived in error.

Please note that the guidelines say that if a cache is archived by a reviewer or Geocaching HQ staff for lack of maintenance then it will not be unarchived. Here is the link to the relevant part of the guidelines Ownership after publication.

How Geocaching Works

Please note Use of geocaching.com services is subject to the terms and conditions in our disclaimer.

Geocache Description:


291

Footpath 185 links Bowers Gifford from St Margarets Church to Benfleet Railway Station.



The route can be completed in around 1 and a half hours being approximately 4.5 miles in total. This is over mixed terrain from tarmac path to grass and at times alongside the creek which at times can be both muddy & wet and slippery under foot choose your tides well.

Please ensure you wear sturdy footwear.

We commence near to Benfleet Railway Station but unlike yesteryear you no longer need to use the level crossing like in the 60's, how things have changed.

During the walk you will take in views across Bowers Marsh currently being preserved as a wetlands project and nature reserve. Once complete there is a possibility that with the guidance and assistance of the custodians of Bowers Marsh there may be an extention or trail through the new nature reserve.

Please be patient and do not place ANY cache on the reserve without their permission.


Dogs are permitted on the public footpath but NOT within the nature reserve, so please respect this exclusion and ensure that any dog is kept under control and away from any livestock/wildlife.
(potential for cattle grazing within although I have never seen any and nesting birds etc.).




The co-ordinates are not for the cache but for Parking (pay & display) and the clue to start the trail.
