Geocache Description:

A continuation of a series of caches which will involve a walk along the Worcester/Birmingham canal, which will take the walker on a journey to the River Severn.
After caches which celebrate my daughter’s birthday and graduation, this one is for my son’s BSc

The Worcester and Birmingham Canal is a canal linking Birmingham and Worcester in England. It starts in Worcester, as an 'offshoot' of the River Severn (just after the river lock) and ends in Gas Street Basin in Birmingham. It is 29 miles (47 km) long. There are 58 locks in total on the canal, including the 30 Tardebigge Locks, one of the largest lock flights in Europe. The canal climbs 428 feet (130 m) from Worcester to Birmingham.
This canal is popular with walkers and cyclists and is well worth the effort. Maybe not the whole length! But the walk from the cache location to the River Severn does take in several points of interest such as The Commandery, the site of the Worcester Porcelain works and the Cathedral.
 
Please make sure the cache is well hiden when replacing and exercise the utmost stealth.
