Geocache Description:


A wooden footbridge into Besselsleigh Wood

Besselsleigh Wood has been continuously wooded for over 400 years but has more recently been altered by partial planting of non-native species. Today the woodland is managed for quiet recreation and wildlife.


At the given co-ords you will find an information board about Besselsleigh Wood.
There are co-ords for an alternative board in waypoints should there be a problem with this one.

Value of coin at bottom left is AB pence.
The presence of Sycamore in the woodland is the result of c. CDEFs plantings.

The cache is located at - N 51° 42.(A+C)(D-C)(E-C)′ W 001° 21.(B+C)(D-C)(F+C)′

Checksum for all the numbers in the final coordinates is 44

Besselsleigh Wood can be very popular and busy at times, so please take care when retrieving and replacing the caches here, ensuring that it is re-hidden out of sight using the abundantly available natural camouflage.



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:- www.littlebridgesseries.co.uk . If you would like to add to the series, please contact Stan via the Little Bridges website with your caching name, name of your Little Bridge and the GC code and he will give you a number for your bridge. 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.
