Continue up and out of the woods and into a field which can be very muddy in winter. The cache location is visible from the cow shed, and it is not obvious that you could be being watched by the farm workers. Stealth is required. This has been moved slightly from its original location, as some seemed unable to return it to where it belonged. The hint is very specific, so if you find it elsewhere, please return it to that location.

Generic Series Information:
The Coleridge series takes the cacher in a loop from the village of Colerne to Euridge, Widdenham and back, on a route of just under 4 miles.This may be done in its' own right, or as an extension of the Thickridge Eight series. If done on its' own, parking is available in the village as shown on the descriptions for caches 7, 8 and 9. The parking at the indicated location and nearby estates is unrestricted, but please note that closer parking along the high street and market place is restricted to the specified time limits. If you do start the loop at Colerne, then at Euridge you will pass two of the Thickridge Eight caches followed a little further on by Mr Monk Monk's Wood. There is also the church micro in Colerne. The wooded section of the route between #17 & #20 has a narrow path and a long steep bank at the side in places. There are some steep hills, and in the winter much of the route can become extremely muddy; - sturdy walking boots are recommended. The elevations, starting from #1 are as follows:
Many of the caches are in clip top boxes of varying sizes in camouflaged bags. Please fold in the sides of the cache bag before you close it over to ensure that it remains watertight. No caches are hidden in or on dry stone walls, so please take care not to disturb these in any way. Some fields may contain cattle or sheep, so please ensure that you keep your dog on a lead. If you bring a dog, in the unlikely event of cattle chasing you should release your dog and allow him to run away. I have always found them to be very friendly.
