Geocache Description:


Bridge End View

Natland Treacle Mines

Ask a Natlander about the Treacle Mines and the reaction can vary from a look of blank puzzlement to a wry smile and knowing wink.  A few view the subject as an embarrassment whilst others regard it as a good bit of harmless fun to be enjoyed at the expense of curious visitors. But perhaps there are those who know rather more?Ask for directions if you will but do not expect a simple answer.  One theory is that the secret is known only to a few village elders; another is that they have all died and the knowledge is lost.Walking round Natland, the only visible reference to the Treacle Mines is in a garden on Oxenholme Lane where a small cart is on display, painted in the livery of the Natland Treacle Mines Ltd of Westmorland.  Also in the garden is a replica of a delivery bicycle, as used to carry the treacle to the customers.

The cache is a small clip box container in a camo bag please re hide well. the cache isn't hidden in the wall and no stones in the wall should be touched to retrieve the cache
