Geocache Description:


This cache is part of a series of caches which are placed at or near village halls and community centres.
For details and statistics about the Village Hall Series please visit Village Hall Series website

The geocache
A 450ml clip lock box in a camo bag.
The Village Hall
This is a beautifully restored hall in a quiet location, and is quite unique. BOSH (Ballingham Old School Hall) is formerly the village school and it has lots of character, being stone built with a vaulted ceiling in the main hall.
Access
Parking nearby in the spacious Village Hall car park.
The Settlement
The village of Ballingham is a tiny village nestling in a curve of the River Wye between Hereford and Ross on Wye. In February 1834 Ballingham had the dubious distinction of claiming a rabid dog – the dog, belonging to William Greenaway, bit his wife and two children then died in three days exhibiting every sign of rabies. It was reported that ” The sufferers have prudently resorted to the excision of the parts.” Ouch!
