Geocache Description:

This is a nice easy nano (sorry to the nano haters) on the north side of Bridgnorth. A little way up from the cache you have a view of the town's Northgate.

The ground is easy going and paved all the way. This is a very popular route into the town and a high muggle presence is likely.

The Northgate is part of the medieval town wall that once enclosed the town. Bridgnorth's town walls were initially constructed in timber between 1216 and 1223; murage grants allowed them to be upgraded to stone between the 13th and 15th centuries. By the 16th century, the antiquarian John Leland reported them in ruins and of the five gates, only one survives today - the Northgate. Northgate now houses Bridgnorth's Northgate Museum (visit link)

Please take extra care when looking for and hiding the cache, as this is a busy area.

Congratulations to Izzy and the Lizard King for the FTF!
