Geocache Description:


This cache should be an easy find on a circular walk around Bracebridge pool, which is in sutton park. Bracebridge Pool is one of the largest in the park. The views as you approach this pool are also amongst the finest in Sutton Park. The pool takes its name from Sir Ralph Bracebridge. Bracebridge obtained a life lease on the Chase of Sutton Coldfield in 1419 and had the pool constructed to provide a good supply of bream for his family and friends. The pool is approximately 16 acres (6.5 hectares) in size. The cache is a small screw top pot on a hook, which is on a popular path so watch out for muggles, It is buggy friendly if you go anticlockwise (muddy and rooty if you go clockwise) so there is no need to go off the path. The nearest parking is from Streetly gate, during the spring/summer there is a £2 charge to bring your car into the park on a Sunday and bank holidays, the gates are locked at night with times on a board at the entrance. See if you can spot the wild ponies while walking to the cache. Please make sure it is replaced EXACTLY as found as this one has a habit of going missing
