Geocache Description:


HUYTON TRAIL #6 - CYRIL'S GETTING BOULDER

 

Huyton Trail will take you on a tour on the outskirts of Huyton, Roby and Netherley. The terrain varies a bit from paved streets at the start of the trail to off road footpaths towards the end. In these places it can be a bit nettley in the summer so long pants and sleeves then, and quite muddy after rain so wellies or boots are advisable in the winter. There is a selection of sizes of cache, some are large enough for trackables, others merely nanos.  The trail, if done as a whole is a circular walk of approx 5.5km.  Numbers 11-16 are on a linear path of approx 1.5km   -  Most of the rest can be done either as drive-bys or with just a short walk

 

I've place this cache where Cyril Cook Park opens out onto Twickenham Drive, behind The Crofters Pub. While setting the trail I bumped into an older gentleman on Carr Lane, he was doing an 'all our yesterdays' walk. He said he remembers the field that ran from this spot, up to where the pub is, being a big field of cows. Hard to believe now, but at the same time it shouldn't be surprising, I believe the car service station at the beginning of Tarbock Road (behind the Italian restaurant) used to be a dairy. But I am FAR too young to remember that wink
