Geocache Description:

This cache forms part of a series from Torryburn to Crombie. It is recommended you also try the Cairneyhill to Torryburn series as this forms a nice four mile walk or cycle. This cache is in a wooded area, so expect poor GPS coverage

The former mining village of Torryburn grew up as one of the busy Forth ports with the export of salt and coal, from the salt pan operations, in the 1600s.
Notable buildings include the Parish Church of Torryburn and Newmills, dating to the early 1800s and Craigflower House (now flats) with its crowstepped gables, on the shore.

Cache is hidden within what used to be the grounds of Craigflower House, near to where the Torry burn meets the Forth. (If you can see the sea you are on the wrong side of the wall)
