Wildherness Traditional Cache
Please note Use of geocaching.com services is subject to the terms and conditions

In the village of Wildhern enter the pathway from the road (Brenda Parker Way footpath) at N 51° 15.429 W 001° 29.755 and follow the short public pathway alongside a field to the left and property to the right. The cache is suitable for travel bugs and geocoins.
A few miles outside of Andover in the parish of Tangley is a small Hamlet called Wilhern, whose name is thought to have come from a combination of 'hern' meaning herod and 'wyld' which meant croft. Other lines of thought are that 'hern' should be linked to something wet such as a lowland area. But it probably derives from 'Wilde Herene' which means a wild corner or 'Wilde Hurne' which meant 'wilderness'.
Quite a narrow footpath - not suitable for wheelchairs.
