Geocache Description:

A gentle walk in a beautiful wooded area with a spectacular view of the Sea Mills / Stoke Bishop side of Bristol.

I suggest starting from the main car-park for Blaise Castle located at N51 30.301, W2 38.254. A gentle walk up through the woods takes you to an open area where Blaise Castle folly is situated. The folly was built in 1766 by Thomas Farr on the site of St Blaise`s Chapel. It was located on a high outcrop above the River Trym and used as a summer house by the owners, the Harford family. In recent years it was vandalised but now has been renovated by the Friends of Blaise Castle. It is open to the public on request or during special occasions. Near to the castle is the view-point known as Lover`s Leap. It has a very spectacular outlook over west Bristol stretching from the River Avon to Durdham Downs. The cache, a small plastic container, is hidden in this area and will only hold very small items. Close to the car-park is an excellent play area for the children. Good hunting!!
