Geocache Description:

A series of ten caches across Bathampton Down.

Fourth cache in the Bathampton down series.

You are looking for an unusual cache container. There is no pencil with this cache so please bring your own. Beware of muggles here as this is along part of a popular jogging route.

After finding this cache you might like to do Sham castle cache (GC8DEC) set by The Wombles, a very nice cache that can be found along the way to BH - 5. Close by is also the Skyline cache (GCN7XE), a multi set by The P's.
As you pass Sham castle itself be sure to look right for an amazing view.
To get to BH - 5 or the Sham cache get back onto the main track, continue along the path and walk through the golf club grounds. Sham castle is behind the club.

Congratulations to Jenny, James and Sophie for FTF.
