Please do not park or drive on the road as it is private and the right of way is on foot only
This is the first in a short series of caches following Stentiford lane and under road. I would advise using the recommended parking as this will make a circular walk with the last cache being fairly close to the start point.If you start here and follow the track from the trailhead you wil pass by an additional 5 caches. you will also be walking along a very nice section of the templar Way.
If you wish to park closer to the start there are some places along lowerdown, just up from the hotel. The road starts at N50 35.470 W003 41.906. Please park carefully and avoid blocking the road or any driveway. if you do park here remember that this is not a loop and you will need to make your way back here from the last cache at chapple cross.
As stated at the start this trail is not suitable for driving and should be done on foot, although you could use a mountain bike or a horse!!
The official name for the road is Stentiford Lane but it is known by the locals as Water Lane. I suspect that this is due to the water,that runs down the lane even in the summer. In the winter you will need wellies and in the summer good walking boots are recommended.
The containers are a mix of traditional. special and homemade. You will need to either bring your own pen/cil.
Please take care in these difficult times and ensure that you stay safe at all times.
All directions and hints assume that you are walking the trail from one to eight in ascending order.
This cache can be found close to the start of Stentiford lane and on the right hand side.
This is an easy find and you are looking for a traditional container in the obvious place.
Although it is quiet here there are several houses and cars and tractors do use this section of the road. Please ensure you keep your geo-kids close and your geo-hounds on a lead until you are past the entrance to the farm.
After finding this cache continue on down the road to the next one
