Glyn Valley Tramway Traditional Cache

This cache has been archived.

Southerntrekker: Hi There

As the owner has not responded to either my log or my colleague's previous log requesting that they check this cache I am archiving it.

Please note that once the cache has been archived, this can not be undone. This is explained in the Help Center - http://support.groundspeak.com//index.php?pg=kb.page&id=70

You will need to create a new listing, put it back in for review and as long as it meets today's guidelines and no other caches have been published in the area causing a proximity problem, then it will be published.

Regards

Geocache Description:

The cache is hidden just off the Glyn Valley Tramway path in the picturesque Ceiriog Valley.

The tramway was built to carry the stone and slate from Pandy and Glyn Ceiriog to the Canal at Chirk. Originally this was a horse drawn tramway but steam engines were used until it sadly closed in 1935. Now the western end of the tramway is an attractive walk beside the river.
There is more information at http://www.glynvalleytramway.com/
I recommend that you park at N 52° 55.158', W 003° 11.610' and walk the 2km down the tramway to the cache. The path is obvious and waymarked.
The cache is hidden in Hendre granite quarry not far from the main path. GPS is a bit patchy in the valley but as you get near the cache take the little path off to the left (if you came the recommended way) up towards the rock face. You do not have to go near the rock face or scree.
