Mr S. has his roots in farming and used to farm in this area. He likes a bit of a ramble in the countryside and thought this would make a good Caching round. The walk is about 5 kms between Earthcott and Gaunt's Earthcott. It is mainly across farmland and you are likely to encounter livestock - particularly cattle and horses - please take care, especially with geodogs. In places it will be wet and muddy!
After #11 the next gate appears to be locked, and you might have to climb it to continue on the footpath to cross the bridge in the corner. Follow the footpath to next big gate in hedge and go through - head left towards road. It can be VERY muddy here
After #14 you will follow a farm track rather than the marked footpath - permission has been given for this.
The walk is fairly level, but is not buggy friendly as there are several styles and gates to negotiate. Sorry, this route is not suitable for cycling or night caching. Please bring your own pen and an OS Explorer Map 167 may be helpful.
PLEASE LEAVE GATES AS YOU FIND THEM
Care needed on the road it is a bit of a 'rat run' at times
