Description
A cache placed along a section of the John Musgrave Heritage Trail, near Berry Pomeroy.
From http://www.countryside-trust.org.uk/
The John Musgrave Heritage Trail is a 35-mile walking trail across South Devon, launched in March 2006 in memory of John Musgrave, former chairman of the South Devon group of the Ramblers Association who left a £100,000 legacy to the group when he died in 2003. John was an enthusiastic walker, leading walks along some of his favourite sections of coastline here in Torbay. Torbay Coast and Countryside Trust, on behalf of the South Devon Group of the Ramblers' Association, has created the new trail which links the existing Dart Valley Trail, Torbay Totnes Trail (T3), Torbay Dart Link and South West Coast Path with new sections of path to create one complete route through Teignbridge, Torbay and South Hams. The route explores over 40 of South Devon's finest heritage features and is suitable for all types of walker, from the gentle stroller to the experienced rambler. In just a few footsteps the route moves from urban life to rural landscape, and takes in woodland, farmland, Country Park and coastline.
The trail is divided into four individual sections and each section is accompanied by a series of interpretation boards. Whilst researching my booklist of caches close to the John Musgrave Heritage Trail
( Link to Bookmark List ) I noticed that there is a lack of caches in the section between Marldon and Totnes. This is a shame because there is some lovely countryside in this area.
The cache is a 270ml pill pot hidden in the base of a small tree/shrub/hedge - (when does a shrub become a hedge or a tree?).
Contents are a logbook and small pen - there is some room for small swaps.
While you're in the area don’t forget to check out Denbury Depository Terracache if you haven’t found it yet.
