DMPBs 5,000th Cache, well done folks!!


Penshaw Picnic - Saturday 8th August 2015 - 12.00-13.30


Following the success of our picnic meet last year at Penshaw Monument we thought we'd do it again this year. So come and join us for a picnic at the top of the hill next to the monument.

We'll start at 12.00 midday and be there till 13.30 but I'm sure there'll be folk arriving before that and staying a bit later. Bring your own food and drink. Well behaved dogs are very welcome also. 

It's an easy climb but unfortunately not accessible to wheelchairs.

There's a traditional cache GC2BPT7 right where we are having the picnic for you to grab if you haven't already, plus there's a recently placed multi cache GC5HWAT which starts at the bottom of the hill, and not forgetting a trig-point for those who collect those and it's also a loggable YOSM virtual GC45CC. Around the hill in the nearby surrounding area there are at least two dozen other caches to keep you busy if you haven't cached here before.

The monument and hill is National Trust Property and access is free, but we do remind you there is a donation box at the gate before you climb the hill.

If you wish to take a tour of the top of the monument you will have to personally book it in advance. The information can be found HERE on how to book a tour.

We hope to see you there, and remember to bring waterproofs just in case, this is Britain after all!!
