Geocache Description:

The cache is a small clip top box, please ensure it is replaced correctly - it has magnets on the bottom of it so it can be easily 'attached' out of sight!

This cache was initially released as part of the 2013 TPS/Midlands wide initiative to release festive named caches on Christmas Day full of swag.

The cache is near to a road junction so please use stealth when hunting and re-hiding to ensure it remains hidden from muggles.


As the cache was hidden for the fun of the cache rather than the difficulty of the hide I have added a spoiler photo and description to assist further - happy caching :)

This cache has been released as part of a TPS/Midlands wide 2013 initiative to release festive named caches on Christmas Day.  They are all greater than the size of a micro or nano to allow cachers to venture out on Christmas Day to find a reasonable sized cache and bring them some Christmas cheer! Let's hope this cache brings cheer to many for years to come!

Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to all who find this cache - whatever the time of year it is found!

The cache is sitatued in the village of Borrowash, just over the bridge from the village of Ockbrook which is situated 5 miles east of Derby and has a population of around 7,000 people.  The village has two churches, four pubs, a couple of shops, primary school, and an independent primary and secondary school.  The village is a quiet place easy for circular walks with many pathways and gitties.  It is a local favourite for dog walkers and horse riders, with many footpaths over the fields to other nearby villages.
