Cleveland Street - Swallowed Whole Traditional Cache

A camouflaged micro cache containing only a log, placed along the ancient walking route of Cleveland Street.  Beautiful views of the hills and surrounding countryside.  The path is unmade but clearly defined.  Tweezers will be required, bring your own pen and replace as carefully so as not to spoil the fun for otheres that follow. Cache is hdden away from the road, where you should not be seen trying to search.

Whilst Cleveland Street Walk begins at Guisborough Priory this cache is placed further along the route.

The Cleveland Street Walk covers a distance of approximately 11 miles between the towns of Guisborough and Loftus. Much of the footpath is across rolling countryside following an ancient track used for centuries as a right of way. History tells us that this route was once a major pedestrian highway, probably linking the priories of Guisborough and Whitby. At Slapewath, on the outskirts of Guisborough, a number of railway branch lines crossed and went to various mines; the most impressive reminder of this period is the fine eleven arch Waterfall Viaduct, visible through the trees by Spa Wood. Beyond Slapewath the path rises to give views across to Margrove Park and Charltons. These villages were of a particularly high quality and housed miners who worked nearby.
