Geocache Description:

Just a quick hide placed while walking the dog one evening.
A simple tuppaware tub, large enough for a small trackable and some small swaps.


A simple cache hidden about 3m from the edge of a really quiet lane above the M6 near Patrick Hall.
The kids often enjoy playing in the small beck running through the wood but it does get a bit overgrown in the summer, especially at the edge of the lane. Then again a caching path may well appear making it easier!
Although there's no scrambling needed to get to the cache, there is a slight slope down toward the beck further into the wood, which can get slippy at times.

Could be done as a drive-by (unless you are coming in a bus / lorry or other large vehicle, it is only a narrow lane.)
It would be possible to park for a short time on the verge at the bottom of the hill on the corner next to the M6 and walk up.
Please don't block any gateways though.

The area is wooded and GPS may wander a bit. Hopefully our co-ords are good, we used 2 devices to check them! Spoiler photos are available just in case.

This is also only 300m or so from one of the EasyPeasey series - EasyPeasey #3 Beech

As always, it's not in a wall, please be considerate to all and be careful !
