Geocache Description:


This is the 11th of a trail of 12 geocaches that follow the Dane's Steam from its source in the hamlet of Wooton to the sea at Keyhaven Marshes (via Milford on Sea and Sturt Pond). Each cache or one of the waypoints will be at or very near a crossing over the stream. You will be guided to historic buldings and great natural locations that you might otherwise have not seen.

Each cache contains a single 'golden letter' . The full set of 12 letters is an anagram of the 3 word 'moniker' of one of the most famous and well known pre-Norman (before 1066) Kings of England and provides the solution to the location of the Mystery Reward cache in Hordle. He is buried in Winchester Cathedral and part of a Dynasty that is very relevant to the theme of the trail.

You can park very close to this cache in the fork between 2 roads. However this triangle of parking is often full so you are advised the park in the village centre car park on Sea Road or better still to the North on New Valley Road. (which allows good access to Lower and Upper Pleasure Gardens and caches 9, 10.11) 

The clifftop is only a short drive away with fantastic views on a clear day to the Isle of Wight and Westwards to the Dorset coast. There are multiple car parks along the coast and in Milford on Sea centre. It's worth spending a whole day in this area.

Please log find online as well as in the paper log.
