I have chosen a well known hills landmark for my first cache.
The cache is near the road, but that's probably not a lot of help.
NOTE:
This is not really suitable terrain for small children.
Please do not attempt this at night

Thanks to FTF C.A.S for sending me this historical information on the site.
"A long winding climb up the once notorious Breakneck Hill still passes
through the towering rock cutting which was the pride of the district
when it was laboriously created following the gazettal of the 'North
Eastern Road' in 1854. In fact the creation of this road was regarded as
such a feat that its completion was marked by a progressive opening
ceremony - Breakneck Cutting, the Inglewood Bridge (also still in use) and
a bridge at Chain of Ponds were all declared open on the same day. A
procession of 30 coaches, 60 horse riders and numerous pedestrians moved
from one feature to the next in a day of celebration."
