SOLDIER'S TRAIL Multi-Cache

This cache has been archived.

MeerRescue: The second of our geopots that we are archiving today, again, one very unlikely to have been found by 'accident' [:(]
Sometimes I wonder why we bother with 'proper' geopots - micro's and numbers seem to be the new game - oh well, time to close this one down [:(]

Geocache Description:


Co-ords for suggested parking only.

The Western Heights of Dover are steeped in military history with dramatic 19th century fortifications. These fortifications were started c.1750 and finished c.1867. In 1999 a local authority partnership installed an interpretation trail around the long demolished Grand Shaft Barracks with 10 history boards reciting the barracks history. The trail is a little under a mile long and the boards, although numbered 1-10, need no exact route to enjoy.  

The departure of the 1st Btn Parachute Regt in early 2006 supposedly ended over 900 years of recorded military presence in Dover. However, in a brave rearguard action, a small number of soldiers have remained behind and concealed themselves in the remains of the former Grand Shaft Barracks. Their orders; Pass on restricted intelligence to authorised persons only as to the final location of a cache @ N51 07.ABC E001 18.DEF
