As there's been either no response from the cache owner, no cache to find or log to sign, I'm archiving it to keep it from continually showing up in search lists, and to prevent it from blocking other cache placements. If you wish to repair/replace/make available the cache sometime in the near future (next 30 days), just contact us (by email), and assuming it meets the current guidelines, we'll be happy to unarchive it.

Hey just check on this since I've found it before it's deff not there ):
 
28-Oct-11
Could not find, maybe muggled, more likely we were not good enough to find it this time. We'll be back!!
 
16-Oct-11
Might need to check this one out. The long list of DNF suggests that this might not be there anymore.

I have passed by here about a fortnight ago and had no luck then. I returned today to find my GPSr putting me in exactly the same spot out in the open, and on the edge of the garden, with absolutely nowhere to hide anything without venturing into the garden. I presumed that the hide was somewhere between the wall and the structure, and had a good look there again today as before, but no luck once again. Nobody seems to be having too much luck with this one lately ... hope it is still there?

No luck with this one today. I had GZ close to the footpath but just in the garden bed and the description clearly states its not in the garden bed. I went behind the brick building only to find too many nasty items to continue the hunt. Since been told it is in that area so will return one day soon. Thanks as the park is great. Smile
 
05-Aug-11
Well, it's obviously there, but too well hidden for me.
If you don't need to step on the garden, it's obviously between the building and the wall, but I thought I checked everywhere.
Never mind, thanks for bringing me here link100

Found with Highrod after taking our dogs to Bark in the Park nearby. TilleyTB dipped her paws in this one. Nice hide. Muggles bbqing nearby were oblivious of 2 men and a dog in the bushes behind them! Would have been interesting if we had jumped out and said hi! TFTC

I'd tried to find this cache a few months ago but given up due to the muggles at the nearby playground. Today, my GPSr was a bit more accurate and it turned out that GZ was quite sheltered from muggle views. Quick find. TFTC
 
22-Apr-11
Second time no luck.

This one was a little fun.

As I approached GZ my initial though was to dive in the wrong side.

After reading the cache notes I shimmied in and was startled by someone entering from the other side.

As it turned out it was the muggle from across the road looking for his lost cat.

I explained to him what I was up to and moved on.

Not sure wether he'll take it up though.

I eventually found the cache that was obvious after widening the search area.

Found by Sophie of Kat Kids....had to work out which red building they were talking about... TFTC

Cache was a little off Coordinates but was still there.

26-Mar-11
Just noticed some DNF's but it was found today!
Can be muggled easily?
Little exposed
TFTC
 
25-Mar-11
I would say this cache needs maintenance, there's only our two DNFs at the moment, however muggles have ransacked the cache recently and the cacher who found the mess probably put it back in much the same spot.
 
25-Mar-11
Couldn't find anything outside of the garden bed, nor anything inside the garden bed, which all lines up with the recent log indicating muggles have been interfering with the hide.
 
23-Mar-11
The comment from the last cacher suggests
that the owner should check location and hint.
 
19-Mar-11
Unfortunately, the cache was open and littered around the place. Log was clean and dry, so SL put everything back together and hid it again (hopefully in the right spot). TFTC TNLN

No trackables in sight

Out and about with toy car tonight, taking advantage of the last of our daylight savings hours. This is our 5th for the night and on a roll. Seeing that Toy car has already done this one he givies my a nudge in the right direction seeing he knew the co ords were out. A quick sign and off to the next one.
Interesting old trees you have here
Thanks for the cache.

Placed a large order of take away food and had to wait a while, so decided to do some of the nearby caches.
This was my Second of 3 finds.
Initially started looking on the wrong side of the wall because the GPS was putting me in the garden. When I went over the other side found the tell tell signs of a cache quickly.

Found @ 1210 after a peek at the hint - GPS had me looking in +/- the wrong spot. TNLNSL-TFTC.

Quick and easy find! the description was more accurate than our GPS... -grin- Maybe next time we're in the area the junior member of Team Sparrow will be awake and can direct the search from the playground while the senior team members go hunting.

Out on a night caching run with good mate Marshy (Blacklegend17). Had passed here previously and had no luck but Marshy found this one quite a few meters from where GZ was. TFTC.
 
21-Oct-10
27th of 30 for the night on another crazy caching run with my good mate Marty (Quasar3671). Marty had been to this one previously, and not able to find it, so together we searched and came up with the goods, but the cache was found a fair way from GZ. TFTC.
 
19-Oct-10
When I arrived I recognized the location as I cache a visited many moons ago. I am taking a guess on my real visit date.

What an awesome hiding place!

Great find! Amazing place and real quick once we realized the location.
 
15-Aug-10
3 of 6 for the morning caching run. Had to dodge a couple of muggles scampering from the rain. Took a little while to discover as GPS was wanting me to head in another direction? Do co-ordinates need adjusting? After a little bit of a think through, made the discovery, awesome hiding spot! Left Geocoin & dinosaur. TN TFTC!
Look forward to coming back to visit this park when its a bit drier. The new playground looks good for geokid to have a muck around in.

I was with Robmc who had found this one ages ago but the cache container had changed and had moved a little from his find.
Nevertheless it was a quick and easy retrieval.

There were plenty of muggles around today, enjoying the nearly-spring sunshine. Got some curious glances but were looking in the wrong spot initially. When we came to our senses the cache was found, good hide. TFTC.

This was a fantastic place because when I was there, all of the trees were dark except for this one right in the middle Which seemed very magical. Easy find, TFTC Smile
 
26-Jul-10
Found @ 3.30pm, #310.
A quick stop and search while passing, going from point A to point B.
I was scratching my head for a little while as the notes were telling me where it wasn't and where the GPSr was telling me it was, it wasn't, but i got there in the end.
TFTC.
 
24-Jul-10
I read a few previous logs and determined where it wasn't, thought about where it might be and then went for the hunt. From there it was an easy find. Thanks.
 
24-Jul-10
And I also dropped off a TB....
 
21-Jul-10

Was hard to find at first then realised my friend put in the wrong coordinates fixed it up then no problems tftc
 
18-Jul-10
It was a pretty lousy afternoon weatherwise, but it was a "must cache" day, so I had to go out and find at least one cache. Because of the weather, the park was completely empty, so I had an uninterrupted search.

The GPS didn't exactly take me to it, but if it wasn't in the building nor in the garden beds, there weren't too many other places it could be. Found the cache relatively easy (after swapping my umbrella for a raincoat). No exchange was made. Thanks, link100, for the cache.
 
13-Jul-10
I guess if I had read a few of the previous logs I might have had more luck. I loved the classical music in the Loo. I will come back another day.
 
11-Jul-10
Another great park - people everywhere but managed to slink off unnoticed. GPS was a bit off but Snake saved the day with a most excellent find.
 
11-Jul-10
Found at 14:25 while out on a bike ride. A nice little hidey hole. A man and a kid snuck in when I was leaving. I wonder if they were geocachers?
 
11-Jul-10
Found this afternoon after my footy in East Malven on the way home easily because I found it before I was a member with draw four
