Geocache Description:

This is a simple offset cache, set in the Pinesprings Local Nature Reserve, Poole. I set the cache using my off road mobility scooter and I don't believe it will be possible to complete independently by wheelchair in one go, however, it would be possible (just about) by returning to the street and re-entering the reserve at another entrance. Please contact if you need further details.

This area was designated as a Local Nature Reserve (L.N.R.) in 2003 after public consultation, and is approx 7 hectares / 17 acres in size.

Please park considerately in one of the neighbouring residential streets; Pinesprings Drive may be best.

Go to the listed co-ordinates, where you will find some information that will enable you to complete this cache.
Once there, you will be afforded pleasant glimpses of the Isle of Purbeck in the distance and the Upton Heath SSSI in the foreground.

The cache is at N 50 45 a b c W 002 00 d e f

Where a b c is the original number of acres of the site plus 68

and

d e f is the year the estate was broken up and sold in lots minus 1170.

This is a small cache, so small swaps and TBs only please.

24/12/06 Cache goes public, Merry Christmas!
03/06/15 Cache moved but new hiding place visible from final coords. Same size tub, contains 10 nicely bagged swaps, please trade fairly.
