Halewood Park 3 - Ducky Pond Traditional Cache

This cache has been archived.

MoominPeppa: Hi all. I am sorry to say that this cache has been taken again. Has been replaced many times. Looks like people are being spotted finding it and then it’s going. Happened once while I was sat on the other bench. No attempt made to hide the fact they were looking for the cache. I’ve been contracted by another member (WozKim) who wants to place some caches in the area so have decided to archive it so they can use the location. Looking forward to looking for theirs.

Remember to be stealthy everyone. :)

Thanks to all those who took the time to come and find this cache. Means a lot. Met a couple of caches put to find it and was a pleasure to have bumped into them. Got a real buzz one one young lad came from the local estate after watching geocaching on blue Peter and thought he would give it a go. Hope he is still actively caching.

Cheers

Ian

Geocache Description:


Halewood Park or the Triangle as it is known locally was once a busy railway junction. It is now an oasis of mature woodland, wildflower meadows and ponds. It is surrounded by the urban sprawl of Halewood. It holds the prestigious Green Flag Award. The Park is also a designated Local Wildlife Site.  Its layout is closely linked to its railway history. It forms part of the Liverpool Loop Line and the Transpennine Trail. 

 

There is lots to see and explore. There are sculptures hidden in the park, a childrens activity play area, bird feeding station and lots of routes to walk.

 

Thanks to the fabulous rangers who gave me their kind permission to place these caches. Pop into the Environment Centre and say Hi.

 

The Halewood Park Caches are our first attempt at placing caches so all feedback greatly accepted.  Placed with lots of excitement with my geokid Rose.
