This is a roadside cache in the centre of a beautiful Lakeland village. It can get be very busy area, so stealth may be required. Adjacent parking is available. Can be combined with the other caches in the area.
The village is named after the river (Cald Beck) on which it stands. This river and its tributaries provided the water for the important industrial development of the area in the 17th and 18th centuries - woollen mills, bobbin mills, corn mills, a paper mill and a brewery. The village still reflects this former industrial activity with many of the old mill buildings still in use. Caldbeck has lots of amenities and picturesque local walks of all standards; from easy strolls along the river side or around the village pond, to the more strenuous nearby mountains of High Pike or Carrock Fell. This Geocache was placed with the kind permission of the ‘Caldbeck and Hesket Newmarket Parish Council’. The container unscrews to open. I am a massive rock music fan and aim to give clues to each of my caches with reference to one of my favourite bands. Metallica are an American heavy metal band formed in 1981. They were heavily influenced by NWOBHM and helped define the genre of ‘Thrash’ metal.
