Geocache Description:

Langold To Firbeck
This is my regular dog walk and bike ride with the kids so theres every chance youll see me or Mrs Vaughany with either the troublesome trio(dogs) or the kids.

The cache is located near the recently erected monument for RAF Firbeck a short walk into the village for refreshments

At the outbreak of the Second World War, the hall was used by Sheffield Royal Infirmary and the Royal Air Force, with the adjacent aerodrome becoming RAF Firbeck. After the War, the building was bought by the Miners Welfare Commission for use as a rehabilitation centre for injured miners. This centre closed in 1984. It was purchased by Cambridge Construction. From then the Hall fell into a state of disrepair. Jason Cooper of Doncaster purchased Firbeck Hall and its 45 acres (180,000 m2) of grounds on 6 July 2010. Cooper has a history of restoring Country Homes in the Yorkshire area. He led the successful renovation of Loversall Hall in Doncaster in 1998.
