This cache is near to the 'Airport Hotel', formerly the
‘Post House Hotel’, which stands high above the
junction of Palatine Road and Princess Parkway
For some-time between the 1950's and the 1980's, this junction
was crossed by a warren of subways/underpasses, which allowed
pedestrians to pass beneath the busy traffic unheeded. These may
have been pleasant when first built, but if A Clockwork Orange has
taught us anything, it's not to trust a concrete subway.
The tunnels have now been bricked up, and the access paths
buried in some cases, which does lead to the odd scene here, where
the old railings can still be seen diving into the ground.
This area was also briefly famous in 1979, when someone managed
to drive a double-decker bus into one of the subway approaches
after colliding with a fire engine.
Stealth may be rquired when searching for the cache, as this
spot does get busy. Please bring your own pen.
