Geocache Description:


HUYTON TRAIL #22 - TEN ACRE PITS

 

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

 

Ten Acre Pits is a small mature woodland nestled within the Paramount estate, It's a wonderful site for wildlife. The site is highly undulating; the result of its history as a Marl Pit (soil consisting of clay and lime, used as fertilizer). In 2012, the Friends of Ten Acre Pits secured funding to install new paths, seating, signage and a sculpture trail to help more people access the woods and enjoy the wildlife it supports.
