The Brocklesby Hunt Bonuses Bonus Bonanza Mystery Cache

This cache has been archived.

Bobo Frett: I'm afraid that The Brocklesby Estate have made the decision to keep the Mausoleum Woods closed to the public (due to vandalism and litter increase over the last year) and have requesed the caches be removed.
I'd like to thank them for the opportunity to bring cachers to the estate.

We may yet have the opportunity to host events in the future, fingers crossed.

Thanks to all who visited and for all the great feedback and favourite points.
It's time to fare thee well.

Thanks for all your logs. We've thoroughly enjoyed reading them and seeing your pictures.

THE BROCKLESBY HUNT

Welcome one and all to The Brocklesby Hunt.

All caches are placed with kind permission of the Brocklesby Estate.

To ensure the longevity of this series the Estate have asked that certain rules be adhered to. These are...


  • Caches can only be logged when the estate is open to the public (1st April-31st August). The series will be disabled out of season and the caches stored at Frett towers until caching season next falls.
  • There is to be no caching after dark. No torchlight caching.
  • The caches have been placed with the environment in mind. There is no need to damage anything to retrieve the caches. Most caches are close to the path. There are comprehensive clues if required.
  • The route follows the posts with yellow markers on them, this is the public route. Please adhere to all signposts throughout the estate.

Please park at the parking waypoint to begin your wander.

Due to dense tree cover our coords varied slightly each time we visited. I also used two different GPS' when hiding and took at least 4 sets of coords for each cache.

To ensure minimum damage to the forest our hints are rather comprehensive to compensate for varying coords. Please use them if you need to.

Please bring tweezers, a pen and some paper to note down the clues to enable you to find each of the bonuses. Mausoleum Woods contains a bonus. Cottagers Dale contains a bonus. Hendale/Halliday Hill/Brompton Dale woods have one bonus between them.

The Brocklesby Hunt can be completed in one session or can be split into smaller sections if you wish. Each leg will have its own bonus cache. The bonus cache can be found by completing the relevant section and taking note of the letters which appear on the logbook in SOME of the caches.

Due to the nature of our permissions there are parts of the walk which are linear, please take this into account when planning your visit here.

CONGRATULATIONS TO THE*ALIENS FOR SOME SERIOUS NUMBER CRUNCHING TO CRACK THIS BAD BOY. A WELL DESERVED FTF.
