It was a sunny Friday afternoon and so, after a week of work, I decided to go out caching with Sarah (sarahjones65). This cache was quite close to home, but as we'd never been here before we planned a route to take in this one and two other caches in the area.
We parked just off the main road in a residential area and walked back to the public footpath which used to be the railway line here. It was a very pleasant stroll along this now leafy trail towards Ground Zero and before we realised it we had arrived. After a short scramble up a small hillock we were in amongst the trees in prime geocaching country and after a few minutes we'd found the cache.
It was a great place and an even greater container - it was a huge and full of good quality stuff such as old OS map of Stoke, an ipod case and some mini sparklers - none of your usual tat here! Sorry, but being a semi-serious newbie bird watcher I couldn't resist taking the bird playing cards even though we didn't have anything to leave today - I'll have to come back with something soon.
