Globberdyke is an affectionate name for the area in and around Gomersal and Cleckheaton. Where the name came from, nobody actually knows... in fact, we only really know one person who refers to the area in such a way. Some of the 13 caches in this 3 mile series will give the values for the co-ordinates for a bonus cache (GC4D84T), which is a nice size for swaps and travel bugs etc. Some of the footpaths may be muddy after wet weather, but should be suitable for a pushchair.
From number 8, walk along the viaduct footpath. The viaduct crosses 60 feet above Mann Dam on a 13-span viaduct of around 150 yards. The local railway station was closed to passengers on 3rd January 1953. However, the line through it survived until January 1966, welcoming freight and express services. The viaduct was afforded a Grade II listing in 1984 and remains open as a footpath. Bring your own pencil.
