Was walking past this one on my way home from the airport this evening and getting back on the Skylink after a weekend in Ireland.

As the area was deserted and not much traffic, I thought I’d dive in for this one. Nice quick find, though had to use my phone torch to help locate in the dark!

Thanks for the cache - a shame I didn’t know about caching when I was at University here, as I’d have walked past this one many times on my way to the station!

Checked whilst passing ... cache still in place. Logbook was quite torn, but plenty dry enough to sign! However, replaced with new log sheet in an additional inner container to ensure remaining dry.

I was in the area so had to have a look, it was the first place I looked, only shame was the lid wasn't on properly so it was a little damp inside, I dryed it out a little as best I could, thanks for the cache and for bringing me to this interesting place.

Quickly found - thanks for placing this cache.

What a shame that the plaque cannot be seen by people walking past the sculpture on the main road. Why is it hidden away? It makes for interesting reading, but I guess ours is not to reason why...

An evening of catching up with friends. A walk with SazandJoe. Th boys were playing Pokemon while the girls were attempting to be normal and go after real treasure. Sadly JH was more accurate with his location spotting. But the company was good.
Some confusion finding this one. Joe was on the ball and worked it out.

I'd noticed these wheels a couple of days ago as I drove past. Thought then they would be a good spot for a cache. Had a quick look and found it fairly easily.
 
Also came of the the canal walk to pick this one up, what a great bit of engineering sitting at the side of the road, nice quick find and something to read and lean on while signing the log TFTC.
