Geocache Description:

The cache is located in a quiet lane in Holywood leading to the Hills and should be a nice one for the kids to find. You can drive to GZ but be warned you will need a bit of time at the cache and its a single track lane. PLEASE USE BOTTOM OF LANE TO ACCESS CACHE.

I grew up calling this steep concrete lane 'Morley's Lane', not quite sure where that came from but always assumed it was from the farm at the top, do you know Balatty or anyone else for that matter? We rode old motorbikes up and down here and got up to all sorts of mischief. I reckon Balatty and Jike67 should have a few stories to share with us about Morley's Lane.
The concrete lane stops not far further up the hill from GZ so would advise to exit the way you came in i.e. the bottom of the hill @ Brown's Brae.

It's a steep but rewarding walk for those who fancy it. It is a quiet lane but exercise the same precautions as usual as there are homes off this lane so there will be vehicles or maybe the odd tractor.

The cache is a reasonable sized tabloc container cammoed and tucked away at low level.

Don't expect a quick cache and dash, all will become clear when you find it. Please read instructions on lid. Contains a log and small swaps. I don't think the pencil I sharpened is in it so bring a writing impliment.

While in the area why not take in my series 'King John's Highway' which has 3 in it, or the cache on Whinney Hill
