Description
New Town is a suburb of the city of Hobart, Tasmania, Australia, about 4 kilometres north of the central business district of Hobart. It is generally considered Hobart's oldest suburb, settled just a week after Sullivan's Cove. It was historically the home of many of Hobart's wealthiest citizens, and New Town features a large number of grand residences, churches, and public buildings. The large farms were broken up following the world wars and it is now an inner city residential suburb. Many of its streets are lined with Federation style cottages. It is surrounded by the suburbs of North Hobart, Mount Stuart, Lenah Valley and Moonah, with the Queen's Domain just to the south-east. Most of the locality is within the Hobart Local Government Area, with 2.5% within Glenorchy.
This cache is placed at the end of a wide street as it meets the bush area around the knocklofty reserve

Thanks for this cache Budgietas. You can certainly see a long way straight down the street from this spot.
A nice quick find in a very open area.
Managed to get it back before some bike riders came by.
