Geocache Description:


One of a series of four caches located in each of the Rissingtons.

Upper Rissington could be classed as the least attractive of the Rissingtons, but history will explain that this was once the fully operational RAF Little Rissington which, amongst other things, was once the home to the Red Arrows.

The village is now largely made up of residential areas and a business park, but some clues to its previous life still exist not least the large, imposing, but now sadly derilict Officers Mess.

Plans to change the use of this building have been submitted and rejected and so it remains one of the Cotswolds saddest sights.

Plenty of parking is available in the area and a large open playfield is nearby if dogs and children would like to stretch their legs.

The other caches in the series are "LITTLE Cache, Big Views", "GREAT Cache, Better Pub" and "WYCKed Cache, Impressive Green"

FTF: Congratulations go to walk tall!
