The bigger one (probably half way between small and regular)
Assuming that the series is being done in order although more than possible to start from the A374 and head up the valley - Continue to follow the footpath which connects Crafthole with the A374 east of Sheviock. The path now follows the unnamed stream which eventually runs out into Wacker Lake. Since placing the cache the farmer has done some fence work which means the path is protected from cattle/sheep athough this does mean the undergrowth has more freedom to grow. Not far from the cache site sits a stone marker (marked with an A and S) although this now becomes difficult to see in the summer. The reason for this is unknown but I wonder whether A stands for Antony and S for Sheviock (I am willing to be enlightened!!). The dead oak tree nearby also looks quite dramatic and you will also see bits of discarded pipe work that used to be used for transporting the water from the reservoir to Torpoint.
This area (particularly the other side of the stream) was a favourite play area of mine as a kid and one used when a scout for various different games.
The cache is hidden near the footpath which after rain can be a bit muddy although fine for trainers as of Mid Sept 12.
