Geocache Description:


About Village Sign Caches

This cache belongs to the Village Sign Series, a series of caches based on ornate signs that depict the heritage, history and culture of the villages that put them up (generally on the village green!).

The signs can be made of different materials from fibreglass to wood, from forged steel to stone. They can depict anything from local industry to historical events. The tradition probably started in Norfolk or Suffolk and has now spread across most of the country so we thought we would base a series on them!

More information and statistics can be found at the Village Signs Website

About the Wick Cache

A cache placed near the village sign of Wick. The sign shows a snowy scene in the village.

Wick itself is a small village in rural Worcestershire, near to Pershore. The village is mentioned in Saxon times with the name Wickwane.

The village sign shows a wintery scene in the village.

The cache can be done as a cache and dash, but do not park on the busy main road. Instead park on Cook's Hill.

Contratulations to the Sundownder for the first to find, dadu 13 for the second to find and geocacherscott for third to find.



If anybody would like to expand the Village Sign Series, please do. I would ask that you request a number for your cache first at www.villagesignseries.co.uk so we can keep track of the Village Sign numbers and names to avoid duplication.
