This cache is hidden within the nearby grounds of Putteridge Campus on the outer reaches of the Herts/Beds border. The terrain for the most part is very easy although I would recommend a good pair of walking shoes and perhaps a pair of gloves too. This cache is suitable for all including dog walkers but with the exception of wheelchair users.
The mansion at Putteridge Bury was built in the style of Chequers by architects Sir Ernest George and Alfred Yeats and completed in 1911.
The grounds were redesigned by Edwin L Lutyens, soon to be recognised as the foremost architect of the era, and planted by Gertrude Jekyll, one of the first lady Victorian gardeners. Particular features are the reflective pool and massive yew hedges.
Queen Mary and King George V often visited Putteridge Bury with the Prince of Wales and on 1 December 1926 the King planted an oak tree in the lawn to the south of the house.
In 1965 it was acquired by Luton Borough Council and opened as Putteridge Bury College of Education in 1966.
Following Government cutbacks during the 1970s Putteridge Bury ended its brief life as a teacher training centre and was merged with Luton Technical College to become the Luton College of Higher Education, in September 1978.
Now before moving ono the cache, Please be aware that you are entering onto college grounds so you will obvioulsy find plenty of muggles depending upon the day and time you visit. Of course, the grounds are open to the general public but just be aware of the time and day you visit, just in case.
