The Vicissitudes of Farm Life Traditional Cache

I planted this cache in an attempt to get more people to come and walk this particular route, and experience the tranquillity of this lesser trodden part of the county.  You are searching for a Mini Cylinder (Red Top Series) at the bottom of a tree,  near the path which goes between the small villages of Risley and  Dale Abbey

Risley, a town in Derbyshire, 1 ½ mile W by S of Sandiacre, and 4 ½ miles S of Ilkeston.  The manor belonged to the Mortimers, passed to the Sheffields, the Willoughbys, and the Ffytches, and belongs now to the Stevens family. Risley Hall and Risley Lodge are chief residences. A silver vessel, 20 inches by 15. said to have belonged to a church in France in 405, was found near the hall in 1729. The living is a rectory, with Breaston annexed, in the diocese of Southwell; net value, £330 with residence. Patron, the Bishop. The church is ancient but good, and contains some stained windows and a beautifully carved oak screen. There are three endowed schools, founded in 1593 by Sir Michael Willoughby, for the children of seven neighbouring parishes.
