Geocache Description:

Just into Nouale Lane, near the dual carriageway. Placed by 3rd Ringwood Scout Group.

The cache is located at one end of Nouale Lane, near the A31 dual carriageway. Many years ago 3rd Ringwood Scouts finished their first hike here. There is no path to walk on, so watch out for traffic. The upgrade of the A31 through the New Forest started in the early 1960s, following two decades of debate. The Government's intention was to create at least one high-speed route to the south coast, while the guardians of the forest, the Verderers, resisted any further development.[2][3] The first section of the A31 to be dualled was the section that the M27 feeds into at Jct1; the westbound carriageway is the original two-way A-road while the eastbound side was laid down nearby. Further developments occurred from Ringwood to Picket Post near the turn-off for Burley. From 1966-1972, the remaining sections were completed rapidly due to the construction of the M27 motorway up to Jct 1.
