Geocache Description:

This is one of a series of caches which make up a nice circular walk of about 2.5 miles and would be slightly easier going the anti-clockwise way round. All descriptions refer to the walk this way round also as there are some interesting things to see on the way. There's plenty of parking in the village which would be a great place to start and finish the walk, especially as there's a couple of pubs nearby when you've finished. 


As you reach the paved road heading east you'll notice a large wall on your right. The garden behind it, used to be used by biology students at Kings College, Newcastle who owned Close House before it was converted to a hotel. It's now being restored to a private walled garden for the new owner. Walking down towards the cache site you are entering part of Hemmel Wood. My GPS was all over the place in here but the cache name should make it obvious

You're looking for a snap lock box in a camo bag. This is a letterbox cache so please don't remove the stamp inside it.
