We noticed a lack of caches in this area, and so decided to do something about it!
Please take care next to main road, cache can be reached from pavement. Stealth required to avoid muggles. You may need a torch if searching in darkness, but the area is lit by streetlights.
Car parking available in nearby residential streets, but please take care not to obstruct resident parking.
From Wikipedia: Dinnington is a village and civil parish in the city of Newcastle upon Tyne in Tyne and Wear, England. It is about 9 miles (14 km) north of the city centre and about 5 miles north-East of Newcast International Airport.
The village has been inhabited since well before the Iron Age (700 BC). Mining has taken place from at least 1715, with the first deep mine being the Augusta Pit at Dinnington Colliery which was sunk in 1867. 1919 saw the formation of Dinnington Parish Council. In 1974 boundary changes led to the village, previously within Northumberland, being incorporated into the City of Newcastle upon Tyne.
Formerly a coal-mining village with at least four pits within two miles, Dinnington expanded during the last 40 years of the twentieth century to become a commuter or dormitory village with suburban residential estates and is set for further residential development.
Situated a 5 minutes' drive from Newcastle International Airport, the village boasts both ease of access to City Centre and beautiful countryside walks or drives. Big Waters, a nature reserve at a subsidence pond, is nearby.
