On t'way teur t'Stones
The cache, a small snap-top camo-pot, is hidden a few metres off Leather Bank - a lovely shaded public pedestrian access road and track which ends at the goit, weir - and 'The Stones' Burley stepping stones.
The name of the cache is official Yorkshire (-speak) for 'On the way to the stones' - according to the Yorkshire translator.
To reach the cache location: park at N 53 55.125 W 1 45.317 near the start of Leather Bank - of course making sure that you secure any valuables out of sight. Then head past the location of another SawaSawa cache GC7BJ6Z: Weir Is It? and on towards the cache location and beyond teur't'Stones.
There has been a route across the river at Burley via some stones since 1920 but their origin is older. Although these stones were used as stepping stones their original purpose was to direct the flow of the river and prevent scouring of the north river bank threatening the adjacent weir. In any case they provided a pedestrian route across the river which eventually became a Right of Way through habitual use. According to available information the current Stones were built installed about 1895 as part of the works to instal a 'stilling pool' to protect the weir. They provide a (low-moderate river-flow - see below for link) foot access to the north bank of the Wharfe and to Askwith village some 900m away. They also (together with the weir) help to control the flow of the river and mitigate the effects of erosion of the river banks during high flow periods. The stones were formally recognised as a Right of Way by a public enquiry in 1968.
Subsequently the stones gradually fell into a dilapidated state (see Galley photos) . . .
' Accumulating silt has . . . raised the riverbed resulting in The Stones being submerged and some missing [see pictures in Gallery] 
someone had even managed to place a boulder to replace a missing stone. As well as making a dry passage impossible, stones which were missing or submerged could not fulfill their primary function of preventing erosion to the river bank.
Additionally, an 'island' has . . . accumulated and grown immediately downstream of The Stones - even to the extent of having trees growing on it. This prevents efficient escape of the river flow from The Stones and concentrates the current in the remaining channels either side. This further increases pressure on the river banks'.
The north bank in particular is in a poor state of repair having suffered from extensive erosion. In response to this there is a plan to remove the island and use the stones to reinforce the north bank, thereby 'killing two birds with one stone'.
After a sustained local 'Save Our Stones' campaign, the stones were eventually restored in June 2013 and are now in good (and complete) condition again.
Since 1919, there have been proposals to have a footbridge built at the crossing site to provide reliable and safe crossing of the river. More recently in 1996 an association was formed to campaign for the bridge. Up till now, issues of landowners consent have prevented the bridge being built.
As stated in a local walks guide ' It must be emphasised that these stones are only exposed when the river is low. The Wharfe rises (and falls) very quickly, so after any kind of wet spell, they are likely to be under water. In these circumstances, do not attempt a crossing. At best the stones will be slippery and you will probably get wet. Worst case, you could be swept away. . . . [fortunately there is] a real time gauge indicator of the river level at Ilkley, some 4 miles upstream. This will give some indication of the likelihood of the stepping stones being available.' [see here for the current/past 5 days level].
After tracking the state of the stones and the levels of the river for the past few weeks, it would seem that if the level at Ilkley is around or below 0.25m, the stones will be uncovered (and hopefully with a little sun - dry) and the way clear for crossing the river - and of course accessing Aldocandy''s cache GC286FW: Curse of the FTF Wharfedale 14 across on the north bank!
