Leap Valley is a hidden Open Space off Badminton Road. It is owned by South Gloucestershire Council and managed by the Friends Group. It forms part of a wildlife corridor linking the River Frome through to Emersons Green.
This multi cache is part 1 of the Leap series, that takes you on a lovely walk through the Leap Valley to a footpath / cycleway. This is the start of the walk. As there are a variety of existing caches in this area, to be able to bring these additional Little Bridges to avid cachers enjoyment, we have had to place the final cache further afield.
Gather the following information at the bridge site:
The number on the dog poop bin, if faded work it out from these Roman Numerals, V VII IX = ABC
The number on the nearest lamp post = D
The number of vertical metal posts on ONE side of the bridge = E
How many concrete posts / bollards? = F
What number is on the nearby yellow fire hydrant H sign? = G
Do the following calculations, to find the cache coordinates:
N51 (AxG) . (B-G) (A) (B-F)
W002 (D-A) (C) . (D-F) (E) (G-F)
The Little Bridges series was started by Stanthews in 2009 to highlight small footbridges in remote parts of Wiltshire. Since then the series has been expanded by others all over the country and starting to spread fast, Damian from Winter Foxes has created and updates a list of cachers who has found 10 or more little bridges and can be found here, if you would like to add to the series, please contact Stan on stanthews@aol.com and he will give you a number for your bridge, to qualify, the bridge must be a foot bridge too small for vehicles, please make sure your title exactly matches “Little Bridges # xx then name” including spaces so it will get picked up and added to Damian’s list.
