Geocache Description:


Having visited this area for another cache I noted a recent FB post about a straggler remaining behind still in place; GC48YE9 'Little Bridges # 121 A Skip from the castle'. Alas that was archived so happy to resurrect and relist with a fresh RITR logbook inside the clipped up Berocca tube. 

Have refreshed the coordinates, and added a trailhead at the top of the steps too. There were a number of other Little Bridges in the area but all inaccessible as on Private land, along with the Private fishing. The area is dominated by the looming Farleigh Hungerford Castle above, and a number of streams and tributaries.

I was trying to avoid any Castle puns, I reckon I can bailey Keep away from the obvious ones, motte my kind of thing.

Whatever floats your moat I guess!

The Little Bridges series was started by Stanthews in 2009 to highlight small footbridges in remote parts of Wiltshire. Since then, the series has been expanded by others all over the country and starting to spread fast. There is a stats listing, so you can see how many Little Bridges you have found, you can find it here: - Little Bridges Geocaching Series (littlebridgesseries.co.uk). If you would like to add to the series, please go to this site, on the tab Get Involved click number request and fill in the form. To qualify, the bridge must be a foot bridge too small for vehicles, please make sure your title exactly matches “Little Bridges # xxxx then the name” including spaces so it will get picked up and added to stats list.
