Easy find, but then I went the wrong (long) way down the hill, taking the winding road rather than the footpath. Doh!

Found without difficulty (with the help of the hint). TFTC.

Beautiful spot! Sad to see the tennis court in the garden next door in such a state of disrepair, though.

After some really quite-overgrown paths (see photo), I was quite glad to get back onto a nice, hard road: far easier on my poor feet.

Lovely little lane. Found the cache, then hopped the brook and turned left to rejoin the trail.

An easy find at the start of this, the risk stretch of my expedition. I think I’ve sweated off all of my sunscreen, but the sun’s give behind some clouds so I think I’m okay.

GPSr was playing up again but the hint set me right.

A little damp underfoot here, but at least I didn’t have to stand in it for long: an easy find.

I lost my pen somewhere in this meadow, but thankfully I was able to find a somewhat-blunt pencil in my pocket with which to sign the log.

Getting even boggier underfoot now! How is this possible of such a sunny day?

Okay: I made a HUGE mistake heading to this one. Somehow I must have ended up on the wrong path, because I found myself on an abandoned footpath (definitely a footpath, though: the stone walls it crossed had stiles), heavily overgrown and increasingly flooded! Eventually I had to give up and change course, hacking my way through 7-foot nettles to rejoin the main path. Should’ve brought a machete! Got to the cache in the end, though!

As I got closer to this cache, I discovered that it was on the other side of the fence to me. It can’t have been placed on private land so far from the public footpath, surely, I thought. And then I realised: it was I who was on the wrong side of the fence. Whoops! Quickly corrected my mistake, then found this lovely cache very easily. TFTC!

I really love the woodland trail that brought me to this cache. I feel sorry for anybody who tries to cache-and-dash this and so misses out!

Can barely see the plant mentioned by name in the hint, this hedge is so overgrown!

Good hiding spot. Despite the adjoining field’s clear recent use, this cache had remained completely undisturbed!
