Geocache Description:


From #4 cross the road carefully and follow the paths going straight ahead through gates keeping to the right. The path should go across a field at one point but it may be better to go to the right hand edge as it's not clear at all. To log a find on this cache you have two options. To get to the log proper will require a lot of patience. You might be better off walking into the light of the field with it sit down and take your time. Please don't use brute force. If you don't have time then there is a log on the outside but please make it clear this was the one you signed. I would rather this than a damaged container. I have always enjoyed visiting and driving through this part of Kent. So this small loop of caches is set up to try and take in the beauty of the surrounding countryside. The distance between some of the cache is deliberate so that you have time to take your eyes off the GPS for a bit and look around you and enjoy the actual walk. You will be passing through farmers fields which have livestock in them, please observe the rules about keeping dogs on leads. All of the caches are placed close to the footpaths. I hope you enjoy the walk and the caches. If going onto number #6 then continue straight along the path up through the woods. A little bit of information about Petham. THE PARISH OF PETHAM lies in a healthy, though wild and romantic country of steep hills, the soil of which is very poor, barren and chalky, and covered with sharp slints, the fields are in general large; at the western boundaries it is covered with woodland, at the eastern runs the Stone-street way from Canterbury to Hythe and Limne, the Portus Lemanis of the Romans.
