Geocache Description:




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. There is a stats listing, so you can see how many Little Bridges you have found, you can find it here:- www.littlebridgesseries.co.uk . If you would like to add to the series, please contact Stan via the Little Bridges website with your caching name, name of your Little Bridge and the GC code 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 # xxxx then the name" including spaces so it will get picked up and added to stats list.

These caches are in and around the woods that lead to The Bocase Stone. 'In This Place Grew Bocase Tree' so says The Stone. The Stone dating from about the 18th Century records an even older Tree. The Tree has many stories about it, the best being that one Robin Hood (before Nottingham took over him) stored his long bow here. A few years ago a new Oak Tree was planted here and there is now a bench to rest, so have a rest before carrying on. The Caches follow the main tracks and the several footpaths through the woods. The whole of the woods is known as Fermyn Woods, although smaller parts of the woods have much nicer names like, Harry’s Park Wood, Old Dry Bushes & Hills and Upper, Middle and Nether Laundimer Wood. There is no one ‘route’ for these caches so some double backing or more than one trip will be needed. The Caches in the woods have been placed with kind permission of the Forestry Commission. Please take note of any temporary signage and restrictions as this is a ‘working forest’.
