First of the day with sarahjones65. We'd been meaning to do this one for a while as we had a rough idea of where the woods were and we pass them fairly often. We parked in a nearby new housing estate and Sarah was very surprised to find the pub she thought was here had been knocked down. First blow of the day! We could see the woods (and the trees) from here but had to walk back to the main road to find the entrance to them.
This location reminds me of Lee Hall Bank Park in Westhoughton which I'd done a DNF at recently, as part of the road was in fact a bridge over a stream or culvert and the path dropped down into the woods.
We were soon walking along the path and enjoying the morning sunshine - the weather had taken a turn for the better today. We could see a gate and fence at the end of the path and headed for that. We always read the clues by default (it just saves time later) and so we knew what we were looking for. After a few likely suspects, we realised we hadn't gone far enough and so carried on a little further after consulting the GPSr.
A few minutes later and I'd found it, quite well hidden, but in an obvious way for a cacher's eyes. After waiting for a dog walking muggle to pass by, I grabbed it and Sarah did the logging business.
We took a red mouse (looked like a cat's toy) to move on today and left Anton the ducky TB. After replacing the cache we had a pleasant walk back to the car.
