Geocache Description:

You are looking for a green Clipsal container well hidden.

On the Port Road there is a strange structure that appears to be many years old. I have spoken to some locals but no-one can give me a definitive answer to it's origins. So if anybody can help, post your answer to enable us all to become that little bit more knowledgeable about our history. The building is still reasonably sound and does have some major cracks and loose stones but is safe. UPDATE 2014: The historian at the Port Adelaide Library told me that this structure was built circa 1936 to "beautify" the entrance to the city for visitors arriving by ship in the port. It was built from cobble stones taken from Port Adelaide streets and was used as a bus shelter.
