Geocache Description:

A longish walk (about 45 minutes on short fat middle-aged legs)among the industrial past of Grassington, mostly on hard tracks unless you want to follow the Heritage Trail as you pass, which I would recommend.

The co-ordinates above point you to a car park area. The actual cache is in the same county!

Seen in the area: lapwing, curlew, oyster catcher, gulls, various duck, skylark, pippet, snipe, (little?) owl, sparrowhawk, peregrine falcon, rabbits, but very few sheep and even less 'oomans.

Please note: mine workings can be dangerous. Please look after pets, wives and children (in that order!)

To those devoted fans who know my little ways - please apply in advance for a personalised pack of TykeGloop, or you will be sorely disappointed!
