Description   EN  

A little known open space, slightly wooded area overlooking Torbay not far from the Harbour.

Suggested parking in Parkhill Road or Daddyhole Road. A short walk along the (somewhat muddy at the time of hiding) footpath into St. John's Wood. If one climbs to the highest point in the area, there's a good view of Torbay - and if you peer through the hedge and look north, there's a view up along the Babbacombe Road (possibly not the most spectacular or photogenic view going).

The cache is down the hill a few yards from the summit and is a 330ml click-n-lock style container in a camo bag.

	11 August 2010 Redruth Roamers Found it

Another place where a lot of work has gone on. All the ivy has been cut away from the tree and cleared .  We thought this one was gone, but a look around the base and there it was covered with leaf litter.  Kind workmen?

  TFTC,  Redruth Roamers.

	27 June 2010 Ky Devas Found it

Parked opposite the footpath in Daddyhole Road. Driven past here a lot and never noticed it. Had to wait to search as a man was playing catch with his dog. Took the opportunity to look at the view over Torquay. Once they had left it was a straightforward find, TFTC.

	24 May 2010 Amberel Found it

After leaving the St Michael's Chapel cache, I called Lord Darcy, and we arranged to meet here. As I arrived, Paul was trying to find his own cache, and making heavy weather of it Laughing. In the end I was rather pleased with his assistance - by myself I might have struggled a bit with this one Laughing.

Thanks for the cache, and for the top class cache finding service Laughing.

Rgds, Andy

	03 May 2010 Spannerman Found it

This was the second of the day and another we had visited in previous guises and it took two attempts to find the right pathway in. It looks to be a very select park but what a great view from the top. Found the cache without any bother and sat on the seat for a few minutes to cool down while we signed the log.
