Geocache Description:


Sir Dudley’s Ride is named after Sir Dudley Forwood, 3rd Bt. Sir Dudley was born in 1912, the son of Sir Dudley Baines Forwood, 2nd Bt. The Forwoods were an old Lancashire family who made their money from shipping in Liverpool.
Sir Dudley was the sole equerry to the Duke of Windsor after his abdication in 1937 until the outbreak of war in 1939.

After the war Forwood became a farmer in the New Forest and succeeded in the baronetcy on his father’s death in 1961. He was also the Master of the New Forest Buckhounds and chairman of the New Forest and Hampshire County Show.

The recommended parking place is Vereley Car Park: GR197051

This cache will take you about 1.5 hours to walk there and back. I suggest you take your time and enjoy the scenery and wildlife that can be seen in this area.
The cache is a 3-litre container and is placed off the ground. It is possible to approach the cache with the minimum of disturbance to the vegetation. In winter it should be totally clear.

The cache is hidden under the agreement between the GAGB and Forestry Commission in the New Forest.
