Geocache Description:

You will find this cache in Stow-cum-Quy, a peaceful, rural village around 5 miles east of Cambridge.

You are looking for a small tupperware-type cache box, with a log book.

The cache was placed by the BBC as part of their "Thrillseeker" series on outdoor pursuits, along with several others around the area. The webpage for this series is no longer available -- but the cache itself has been adopted and is still there! :-)

The cache was originally placed in a tree stump a little to the north-west of the current coordinates, but had to be moved in 2016 as the stump gradually disintegrated. As of July 2016 it is now hidden at the base of a multi-trunked tree (two main trunks, one slightly smaller one) just east of the junction of the two concrete roadways.

As always, please let me know of any problems, either directly, or with a DNF log.

Happy caching!
