Geocache Description:

Free parking for 2 hours at service station

Cache is a small box inside a camo bag.  Room for small swaps and trackables.

This is a trail container and if it proves popular we will increase its size.

Well done the Sandbourne Seekers for FTF.

A second cache for the busy Strensham Service station.  This one is located closer to the main building and does not require the need to cross any roads.

Strensham services were the first on the M5 and in fact in 1962 when the M5 was opened Strensham was the furthest south it went.  The original service area was about a mile further south but due to motorway remodelling at the M5/M50 junction the Northbound service area was moved in the early 1990s.

The cache is located within a wooded area and the GPS may be slightly out due to this but with a little search you should find it easily.

This cache is child friendly BUT please remember it is a busy service station.

Because of its location within a wooded area it may be difficult for those in a wheelchair to access this cache we are sorry about this.

You can just see the Air Ambulance station from the cache site.
