Geocache Description:


The cache overlooks Holbrook Bay with Wrabness on the other side of the river. It offers views the impressive Royal Hospital School which moved to the 200 acre site in 1933.
The building of the Queen Anne style complex started in 1928 and provided accommodation on a grand scale for 800 boys in 11 boarding houses. Until 1945 it was expected that all boys leaving the school would join either the Royal Navy or Merchant Navy if medically fit to do so. Whilst the school no longer has any formal connection with the Royal Navy, it nonetheless maintains certain naval traditions, and all pupils are issued with a naval uniform and attend formal parades on occasions throughout the year.
Parking is available in the free public car part at N51 58.274 E001.10.087 giving a walk of about 600 yards.
For a longer walk, limited parking is available on the road at N51 58.659 E001.09.443
The area is criss-crossed with rights of way.
