Geocache Description:


This is the 5th cache in a trail of 12 that follows 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 and also a large earth dam, that you might otherwise 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.

There are pleasant rural views and if time its worth doing a circular walk around to Hare Lane and collect cache no 4. It's not unusual to see deer on this route. You can deviate into Golden Hill Woodland at the Hordle end of Hare Lane.

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