I wanted to place this cache at the greens but there are proximity issues.
So the cache is after you "passed the bowling green".
The parking waypoint is at the Friends of the Hill Museum , set up, run and maintained by Members of the Friends of the Hill Society.
Call in if it's open and learn about a place, either loved or hated, but always with a passion.
the Denniston Plateau,
a truly inspiring place
Walk between the buildings and a rough track leads to a grassy open space.
The bowling green opened in 1928 after much work levelling a piece of land with dynamite and carting lorry loads of turf up from below.
The Greens
The heavy roller still stands to attention, ready to work these once fine greens.

Diagonilly across you pick up the Denniston Town Walk. It's an about 40 mins round trip rated: easy. Not sign posted but it shows clearly on the map. The cache(s) will guide you.
Conditions on the Plateau are challenging and plants have adopted over time to the cold temperatures, high rainfall and high winds making them unique and fragile. Available nutients are so scarce that small red sundews use sticky droplets enticing tiny insects.

The cache has been placed so you don't need to get off the track, please return as found.
Weather on the Denniston Plateau can change unexpectedly. Make sure you take appropriate warm clothing, a waterproof jacket, food and water when embarking on walks in the area.
