OSG15 Old Stamping Ground : Brandwood Traditional Cache

This cache has been archived.

StriderGeo: Change is as good as a rest they say - my caches/routes have been up for years, so I have decided to archive most if not all - leaving the land open to others - although I may lay down some new caches myself later this year, if no one gets there first :)

Regards

Congratulations on a full 18 cache series joint FTF to the inimitable pairing of Bessieboots and WFG !

Brandwood was always our routeway to "the tops" ... on a hot summer's day the stone paving in front of the houses baked in the sun and, if we were lucky a friend's Mum would come out and pour us a "Ben Shaw's" lemonade or dandelion and burdock from a recyclable earthenware jug with a cork. It tasted like nectar :)

This series is a self indulgence as it takes a trail around my old stamping grounds as a child. As I was born and bred in Stacksteads walking this route brought back lots of happy memories for me. I hope you have a pleasant time hunting and admiring the views as you go. None of these caches are particularly difficult, so they would be ideal for a family hunt. The only essential equipment needed will be a pen :) The route is approximately 5 miles long and should take 2 – 3 hours. There are no particularly steep climbs, but the paths are boggy in places so wellingtons or boots are advisable.
