Butttercup: Oh dear - a muddy visit to the area confirms, as watercolourman suggests, that this has been cleared away - how sad. The area is now neater and tidier, which I imagine is due to the ditch clearing that has been undertaken since floods over the last few years, but it does mean that there is no good place to rehide a cache now. Nice while it lasted and thank you all those who visited it.
