Sheldon Country Park covers an area of just over 300 acres. It is made up of open grassland, wetlands, old hedgerows and some mature woodland. This is the first in a small series of caches within the park.
The ground is relatively flat and broad paths have been cut throughout the park to improve accessibility. A hard-surfaced nature trail can be accessed from the main car park.
This first cache is placed near Old Rectory Farm which operates as a demonstration farm, showing traditional methods of farming. Animals kept at the farm include Jersey cattle, pigs, goats, ponies, ducks, chickens and geese. The farm is open to visitors every day throughout the year and admission is free.
Free parking is available.
The cache is in what can be a very busy area, so you will need to be very stealthy when retrieving and replacing.
