Geocache Description:

One of Gloucester's most inspiringly situated ancient monuments is the building over a natural spring at Hempsted, which has been known as Lady Well, Lady's Well, or Our Lady's Well since at least the late 18th century. It has long been venerated as a place of pilgrimage; one tradition claims that the mother of Christ, the Virgin Mary, set foot here, and that the spring arose to quench her thirst.

 


This circular walk takes you through the suburbs, countryside and villages around the city of Gloucester.
 
The walk starts at Gloucester's Victorian docks next to the Gloucester Waterways Museum which tells the story of England's canals and rivers. The walk then includes two consecutive waterside sections along the River Severn and the Gloucester and Sharpness canal, taking you to the village of Hardwicke. From Hardwicke the path takes you through some delightful Gloucestershire countryside and the villages of Upton St Leonards, Hucclecote and Churchdown. The walk finishes by passing Gloucestershire Airport and the village of Walham, before returning to the Gloucestershire docks.

Cache is a 35mm film cannister.
