TW01: Kenython Lane Traditional Cache

One of a dozen caches set close to the route of the Tinners Way, a Bronze Age trading route of tin and copper. The caches follow a 16 mile track that covers 20 prehistoric and Christian sites tracing as closely as possible the ancient paths along which tin and copper were transported by people, sledges and pack animals from the mineral-rich area of St. Just to the sheltered anchorage of St. Ives bay.

Tinners Way 1: Kenython Lane

Once leaving the coastal mineral area around Botallack, the Tinners Way probably came straight through the village and climbed up Devil's Lane, which runs parallel to Kenython Lane. However, the section between Botallack and the start of Devil's Lane is now taken up by farmers fields with no right of way, so the modern walk instead follows Truthwall Lane and then Kenython Lane to reach Botallack Common.

You are looking for a 1L Lock&Lock container.

When hidden the cache contained a logbook and pencil (please leave these items in the cache) and various swaps (all new). If you decide to take something please leave something of equal or higher value. Travel Bugs and Geocoins are not trade items, so if you can help a TB or GC then please feel free to take it and log it without leaving anything. Similarly, simply leaving a TB or GC and nothing else in a cache does not give you the right to take a trade item. Please trade fair and think of future finders.
