Geocache Description:

One of a number of ‘caches placed on a five mile circular route starting from either Airton or Kirkby Malham and passing through Hanlith, where this ‘cache has been placed.


We could not know that our Queen would reign over us for longer than any other monarch in British history, but we certainly knew how to mark the first 25 years of her illustrious rule.  Throughout Malhamdale there were outdoor parties and landmark events, and the landmark erected in Hanlith was a circular, steel fence forged in the Smithy in Malham, bearing the date of the Queen’s Silver Jubilee, 1977.  Within it was planted a sapling horse chestnut, an appropriate tribute to the Queen’s love of horses (chestnut and other hues)!   Now the tree has grown, blossomed and flourished (as has, I believe, her reign)!

You are looking for a small box in a camo bag but you cannot claim a find if you do not sign the log!  A photograph will not do. You might like to sit nearby to think about this!
