The park mostly consists of wooded areas, and some pools which
are the old mine workings. Local legend has it that the pools here
are joined to the nearby Walsall Arboretum by the mines. There's
lots of ways to approach the cache, with varying terrain. The
easiest route is mostly along well-surfaced pathways without any
serious slopes, but other routes may include steps or steep slopes.
The park is well worth some exploration, and is one of those places
that only local people seem to know about.
If anyone's feeling adventurous, this cache lies close to the
Beacon Way, which means you could walk to 'Great
Scott' too, but we'll leave that up to you. There's
another cache in the park fairly nearby.
Parking is nearby at 52 35.972 001 57.187- Approach from Park
Road, and pass the Manor Arms Pub. Note the closing times on the
barrier just beyond the pub car park- don't get locked in.
