Geocache Description:

The co-ordinates given are not for the cache but for a nearby spot where there is usually room to park. The walk from here does include some stiles, so is not suitable for pushchairs or wheelchairs.

Nailsea has a number of pubs, in its history it has had up to 30 pubs. Some of the pubs are no longer in existence, some have changed their name. To find the cache you will need to find the location of the following four pubs. Two of them still exist as pubs (with different names), the others are still there but not as pubs. This infomation can be found in local history books (or on line). When you have determined the location of each, you will need to find the postcode for that location (readily available on line). You will then need to note the last letter of the postcode and use this to work out the final cache location using the table below.

A = The Glasshouse (the original)

B = The Butchers Arms

C = The New Inn

D = The Bird in Hand
