Geocache Description:

This cache is one in a series of caches, along the 'Round Aylesbury Walk'.

What is the Round Aylesbury Walk?
It's a 12 mile circular walk which can also be split into 2 or 3 mile segments for those only wanting a gentle stroll. It's a joint venture between the local Ramblers' Association and Aylesbury Vale District Council and is signposted clearly along the route. Most of the route to the North of Aylesbury is on firm footpaths and grassed areas, but there are parts of the Southern Section that cross cultivated fields and meadow land, so be prepared for some mud at times!

About the Cache
This part of the Round Aylesbury Walk runs around the north of the Quarrendon estate, following the River Thame. To the north of the river is the new Weedon Hill housing development, one of many new areas in Aylesbury set aside for expansion. At the time of setting the cache, the area was being levelled and a new road built to service the development.
