From here you follow the black path running alonside the busy A19.  After cache no.4 you retrace your steps and cross over the A19 by the footbridge, where you will find a further 2 caches.  From there you cross the very busy roundabout, caution advised, and pick up the footpath which runs alongside the A66.  This leads to the war memorial at Thornaby, on Acklam Road and leads back to the car park.
