Geocache Description:

A lovely trail around Old Redding which I recently adopted, this was an archived cache so have restored to its former glory. A micro container for which you will need tweezers.


Suggs and Mr Smash wrote and sang Wings of a Dove. How many letters does Mr Smash have in his first name?
N051 _ _ . _ ? _

The series starts at Rogers Bannister's Sport Centre end of Stony Wood and leads to Old Redding and back. A bonus cache is availble if you answer all the quaestions and find all the caches It may also help to answer the questions before you go as the answers are not at each cache location. Roger Bannister became the first person to run a mile in under four minutes. A noted British runner, he won the British mile championships in 1951, 1953, and 1954, and also won the Empire championship. In addition, he won the European 1,500 meter championship also in 1954.

Old Redding is a hilly rural lane connecting Hatch End with Harrow Weald. It is notorious for its connection with The Grimsdyke Hotel where Gilbert of Gilbert and Sullivan fame met his death in a drowning tragedy.
On a clear day you can look south all the way as far as Heathrow Airport and see a succession of aircraft taking off and landing.. And don't forget there is a bonus cache availble if you answer all the quaestions and find all the caches. I will put a question in each cache description to provide the North co-ords and the cache containers giving you the W co-ords.
PLEASE REPLACE THE CACHE CORRECTLY FOR THE NEXT CACHER THANKS YOU
