If driving be aware that you CAN NOT DRIVE between Rectory Road and Monks Wood – this is a private gated road, you will have to reverse if you attempt it!
Best to park either at Rectory Road Car Park (next to the underground water reservoir) or on the road at the top of Monks Wood. There is a nice circular walk through part of Sherrards Wood and Malms Wood which includes the caches:
- Monks Fae
- Golden Guardian
And coming soon:
- Cross Fae
- Monks Walking
- Rectory Toad
Monks Fae Geocache:
You are looking for a camo clip box which is hidden deep within an ancient coppiced tree. You will have to reach inside to find it. PLEASE ENSURE YOU REPLACE IT AS DEEPLY - this is popular spot with small muggles!
This is part of the lovely Sherrards wood, home to many variety of trees and is a site of special scientific interest. This ‘fae’ tree borders where hundreds of years ago, monks would have walked between the Rectory (now private dwellings) and St.John’s Church which is still in daily use.
