The cache is in the middle of Rosemoor woods. There is a public footpath through the woods around the lake. The terain is not suitable for disabled access.
This cache site is to be found somewhere in the Rosemoor Nature Reserve. The lake was constructed in 1978 and now contains a variety of wildlife, including eels, trout, stoneloach and sticklebacks. Very often wild Canada Geese can be found on the lake which being secluded as it is makes an ideal breeding ground. Winter sees many other birds such as Teal, Tufted Duck, little Grebe, Poachard, Coot, Mallard and Moorehen. The marsh habitat has developed around the lake and many flowers may be found growing there. Owls, woodpeckers flycatchers can be seen at times in the woods.
The cache can be visited from either the church at Walwyns Castle or parking area opposite the entrance to Rectory Farm at 51'45.439N 005' 04.922W.
The container is the standard plasic box style.
Be sure to look for the Iron age fort close to the church.
If parking by the church the way into the woods is either over the style in the corner of the church yard or via the gate by the car park. The public footpath leads along the edge of the woods.
