Geocache Description:


King Peredur Paladr Hir
(c.510-580)



This cache is in the The Kings of Ebrauc series. To find this king you must first find King Eliffer Gosgorddfawr

This one man legend roamed and ruled far and wide. His deeds both real and imagined have been assumed by the persona of Sir Percivale in the Arthurian tales. We of course will always be grateful that he founded Pickering. Why he chose to put it there is anyone’s guess but that’s what you can do when you’re a king. He gets a mention in Welsh legend reporting that his father died when he was quite young. The astute of you will have noted that King Eliffer Gosgorddfawr died in 560 and young Peredur was born in 510. That makes him 50 when old Pa pops it, so not that much of a struggle for mum to bring up on her own, even without income support. Well all that said eventually King Adda killed him thus putting an end to The Kings of Ebrauc. I like a tale with a happy ending.

Add the numbers found at the King Eliffer Gosgorddfawr to the posted co-ordinates to find this cache.
