Geocache Description:


Goyt Hall, which stands in the valley of the River Goyt, midway between Otterspool Bridge and New Bridge, is a half-timbered building erected by Randal Davenport about the year 1570, although William Davenport of Goyt Hall, who appears as witnessing a mortgage, died in 1542.

The marriage of the last of the Davenports in 1664 brought the hall into the possession of Sir Fulke Lucy, a kinsman of Sir Thomas Lucy who features in the story of William Shakespeare's youth. This rather tenuous association was marked by the naming of the streets on the nearby Shakespeare Estate, an overspill development built by Manchester City Council.

From the given coords head SW for 90m(arriving at Goyt Hall), Now Turn Right (N/NW) and follow the track for approx 500m untill you get to a farm courtyard, Head through the gate NE along the track for 140m, Follow the track heading NW for approx 116m. See Hint.
