A quick cache on the approach to Hanbury Hall. Visitors to the hall can park in the car park, but if you are not visiting the hall, you will need to approach via one of the public footpaths that cross the grounds of the hall.
You might also want to take in the nearby Church Micro and an existing cache within the Hall's parkland.
Built in 1701 by Thomas Vernon, a lawyer and whig MP for Worcester, Hanbury Hall is a beautiful country house, now in the ownership of the National Trust. Surrounding the house are eight hectares (20 acres) of recreated early 18th-century gardens and 162 hectares (400 acres) of park. Features include the intricately laid out parterre, fruit garden, grove, orangery, orchard and bowling green. A walk around the park will lead you into the surrounding countryside.
All caches have been placed with the kind permission of the Park and Gardens Manager at the Property.
All of the land is let to tenant farmers and you are asked to stick to public footpaths and keep dogs under close control as animals may be grazing throughout the year.
Ample, free parking is available by Hanbury Church, at all times. The car park adjacent to the property is for National Trust visitors to the house, gardens and park and only opens with the property. Please only park here if you intend to visit the property as a National Trust member or a paying visitor.
