Geocache Description:

This Cache is one of a series of traditional Caches along the route of the former Great Central Railway, which passed through Lutterworth.

Bridge 422 was built to take the Lutterworth to Gilmorton Road, over the track bed of the railway. The trackbed has long since gone, being now very overgrown. The bridge has also seen better days, despite being painted with red primer paint. Just further along the road you will see the much newer bridge over the M1

The cache is placed at the start of the bridleway which runs between the motorway and the railway bridge.

Pictures of the Bridge in its former glory can be seen at (visit link)

Parking is very limited, although there is an industrial estate with some off road parking just before the bridge.

The Cache is a 35mm Film Container, which contains the usual Logbook & Pencil. You WILL need a short rod (less than 1/8” diameter) to release the cache.
