Geocache Description:

This is one of 12 caches set on Mrs HRGH's favourite local walk; approximately 4 miles in the countryside around the Sussex village of Warnham (some paths can get quite muddy at times). There is also a Church Micro in Warnham which can be included at the start of the circuit; the Sussex Oak pub opposite this might be a good place to end up!

Each cache is at or close to a different type of tree (hence the names). If your knowledge of trees is not great, the hides are still easy, or you can look at the Woodland Trust's British Trees web site to help identification.

There is free parking available on the road in the village near the church (although this tends to be busy) or at the Village Hall car park at N51 05.380, W0 21.000.

Before setting off for this one, we'd suggest you check out the Warnham Church Micro which will set you going in the right direction.

This cache was originally near one of the youngest trees in the circuit but has had to be relocated to a larger specimen due to repeat muggling. You'll anyway pass at least 14 different types of tree between the church and this cache (English Oak, Red Oak, Fir, Crab Apple, Wild Cherry, Aspen, Hawthorn, Ash, Beech, Field Maple, European Lime, Sycamore, Yew and Weeping Willow).
