Geocache Description:

From NottHill 5, head slightly left and slightly downhill across the field to find the rusty metal gate leading into Rushbury Wood. Once through the gate (it's always muddy here) follow the footpath. The 'sheriff' is located just off the path on the right hand side.

You will know the sheriff when you see him. He's a very imposing figure, a lightning-struck ash standing at the edge of an earthen bank. You are looking for a camo'd bison tube. In summer you may have to leap over a few nettles to get to GZ.

While I was placing this cache I had a strange sense of being watched, and suddenly a roe deer went boinging out of the undergrowth right in front of me. I hope you get to see one too.

Congratulations tarmacjohn, FTF!
