Geocache Description:


REALLY SideTracked - Stapleford

Stapleford railway station was a station on the Hertford Loop Line and was situated in the village of Stapleford, Hertfordshire, England. The station was opened by the London and North Eastern Railway on the 2nd June 1924. It was situated on the Hertford Loop Line between Hertford North and Watton-at-Stone. Like Watton-at-Stone it was closed on the 10th September 1939 but unlike Watton-at-Stone, Stapleford was not later reopened. It remains as the only closed station on the entire line. In the below photo is an OS map from 1938 with the station marked by the blue X and the cache position marked by the red X.

This is a traditional cache and IS at the published coordinates.

The cache is a 5ml tube.
