The PackHorse Bridge was built in the 15th Century and is a
scheduled ancient monument. You can do the walk in less than an
hour, but you may want to linger and take in the views and watch
the wildlife. It will be muddy in winter.
The above co-ordinates are for the parking place at the end of
Marsh Lane. After parking, continue to the end of the road and take
the bridleway on the right. Follow the bridleway until you come to
the main lake. Turn right and follow the path around the lake in an
anti-clockwise direction until you reach the tee for the 18th hole,
which is 0.40 mile away from the parking place. There is a sign
here with coloured digits which contain the information required to
find the final cache, which is at N52 2A.BCD W001 4E.FGH,
where:
A = White 1st digit + White 2nd digit
B = White last digit
C = Blue 2nd digit + Yellow 2nd digit
D = Blue last digit - Yellow last digit
E = Blue 1st digit
F = Red last digit
G = Red 1st digit - Yellow 1st digit
H = Red 2nd digit
Continue round the lake (the path goes between the clubhouse and
the lake) before following your GPSr to the final, which is a small
tupperware type container with the usual stuff. It is big enough
for small TBs.
There are lots of muggles in this area. Fishing muggles, golfing
muggles, as well as the normal rambling muggles and dog walking
muggles. Please ensure the main cache cannot be seen from the
path
Enjoy your walk!
