Geocache Description:

PLEASE REHIDE WELL! Quick and easy cache! Small container containing (at conception): log book and pen, pencil puppet, bouncy ball and trackable Kheper.

This location is quite special to us as it was our first "home" when we moved to Torbay in 2006. Some family friends own Lincombe Keep (castle) and kindly offered for us to stay while we were looking for a house to buy (which as a matter of interest is nowhere as grand as the castle! ) The views from the balconies are breathtakingly spectacular!

A bit of history about the building:

The 'castle' is situated on a bend in Lincombe Drive. This unexpected building was originally a folly designed as an entrance gateway to the garden of the early 20th century house of Castle Tor. It was originally designed by Fred Harrild in the 1930s; he was a pupil of the renowned architect Edwin Lutyens and those who know Castle Drogo, designed by Lutyens, may be able to see a resemblance.

PLEASE REHIDE WELL!
