Livchurch Street Multi-cache

This cache has been archived.

fr8ys: From comments recently it seems as if GZ has gone downhill, so am archiving.

Mr Fr8ys no longer works in the city so can't check on it.

Thanks to all who took part to find this in the past.

Geocache Description:

A magnetic cache hidden between London railway stations. As with all caches in London the tall buildings can cause GPS's to jump around. The Final Co-ords are accurate according to various on-line maps (Google street view and Bing) and the Cache is not near any refuse, nor any security patrolled area.


A short multi cache walking between Liverpool Street and Fenchurch Street stations with the cache located somewhere between the 2. Please ensure you put the cache back where found as it will be hidden from the general view here.

The walk is around 1.5 miles and should take no more than half an hour in total but the final cache spot can be muggle central during rush hours and lunchtime.

Stage 2 may not always be available at weekends. If this happens to you there is an alternative way of finding this number in the hints.

All directions based on walking from Liverpool Street .
