Knick knack, Paddywack.... Traditional Cache

This cache has been archived.

Chrisp66995: The area where this cache is hidden is now clearly ‘off limits’ due to new conservation along the fringe of the wood. I may move it further down the hill into Bunny, far enough to demand resetting the whole thing.
It’s been fun while it lasted!

Geocache Description:

You are looking for a rather unusual shaped cache that in a former "life" served the doggles who are a constant, often suddenly surprising challenge to us geocachers. Hopefully your search today will send you rolling home happy without stepping in anything nasty in the process......

I've had to take this one "out of town" because of the sheer "congestion" of caches (most of them hidden mystery ones) around my preferred site. It now sits just below Bunny Woods, ancient woodlands gifted by British Gypsum to the Nottinghamshire Wildlife Trust who manage and maintain the site. Access to the cache can be from either end of the walk through the woods (taking care as major logging work is currently under way -muggle alert too!) or walking up the public footpath beside the old mine trail that comes off the Fairham Brook road out of Bunny village. You will see the old minehead below as you approach GZ. Incidentally, a Paddywhack (or ligamentum nuchae), is a strong elastic ligament in the midline of the neck of a sheep or cow that relieves the animal of the weight of its head. It is usually yellow in colour. Bring a pen and drop the cache back where you found it when you're done please.
