WtL8 - Mother and Child Traditional Cache

Small camo container.

I haven't managed to find out who created this sculpture, but they are a real surprise as you come round the corner. This cache is close to houses, so you may need to be a little more careful than with some of the others in this series.

Walk the Line is a series of caches linking Lowca and High Harrington along the cycleway, which follows the route of the old railway. Locals describe the walk/cycle as "goin' down t'line'. The route is tarmaced and suitable for walking, cycling, horses and pushchairs. It is a bit narrow in places, and can get busy at weekends, especially in good weather.

The railway is part of the former Whitehaven, Cleator and Egremont railway, and closed in 1973. It used to carry coal and bricks (from the Lowca pit and Micklam brick works).
