Geocache Description:

The rightful home of The Best Man.

THE HOME OF THE BEST MAN

*** jemisageek & Lauren too, due to marry 26 June 2014 in Corfu ***

The Area

Nant-y-Ffrith refers to a stream and the wooded valley through which it flows on the border between Flintshire and Wrexham County Borough in Wales. The stream begins in moorland to the east of Llandegla. It passes Bwlchgwyn village before entering a rather steep-sided, rocky valley. It passes under the viaduct of a disused railway line before joining the River Cegidog at Ffrith. The woodlands contain some deciduous trees but are dominated by recent conifer plantations. They contain a range of flora and fauna including various ferns and mosses and woodland birds such as Wood Warbler and Redstart. There are several abandoned silica quarries and lead mines in the area. Lead mining may have begun as early as Roman times and has left a number of caves.

This cache was placed mainly as a start and end point for The Best Man (TB5J049) who is being sent off on his journey to Corfu for mine and Lauren's wedding, next June (this is not the home of my actual best man).
