Geocaches - 13 found, 1 DNF
Bridgnorth Geocaching
There seems to have been an increase in Geocaches in the Bridgnorth Area. Having nothing really planned, I decide to head out to see how many I can find, with no particular route in mind. What ensues is a real nice walk and an unexpected castle in Quatford that I didn't know was there.
Park up at the Danery, having seen the Black Widows assembling at the nearby cafe. Cache number one is in the Church yard. Stop for a photo and can hear the choir practicing for Sunday Service.

Then we drop down onto the Severn Way for some very pleasant walking upstream along the river. Six caches are along the stretch to the bypass. None have clues and range in dificulty but manage to get them all.

Then down a quiet lane. Some more familar containers in trees and I can see that I am not the only cacher out today - a couple of caches have been signed by AllWeatherCacher.... was that the fella walking alone along the path? Turns out it wasn't, as he described the backpack he was carrying in one of his logs, but I do know what car he drives :-)
I have a choice, I can continue back up the Nurburgring or I can take a detour up a bridlepath to go around the back of Quatford Castle. I had no idea this was here. Turns out to be a great decision, as the paths here are excellent. The building is impressive as well.
Great Paths around the castle. |
43, 10 Second timer but I can still get up trees. |
