OWNER MAINTENANCE REQUESTED PLEASE


Hi there Stewbies_6,

It looks like this cache might need some attention, as one or more seekers have indicated there is some sort of issue. The recent logs may contain more details about what sort of issues are evident.

The cache has been temporarily disabled, so as to remove it from search listings and discourage people from visiting this location, until the issues/s can be addressed.

You do need to respond in some way within 14 days, so others know you are on top of it, as well as indicating exactly what is happening with this placement - please don't let a lack of communication scuttle this listing.

What you need to do:-

You have a number of choices so pick the one that applies from this handy list:-

  • Check On The Cache - once checked, place an Owner Maintenance log and then enable the cache.

  • Place A Write Note Log - indicating a date when you expect it will be restored.

  • Adopt Out or Archive - depending on whether you want it kept or for it to disappear.

Full details for each of the above choices can be found at GEOCACHE MAINTENANCE on the Regional Policies page.

You might wonder what happens if you don't pick one of the above. Well, when the cache is next checked by a Reviewer, if the issue has not been addressed, or there is no acknowledgment as requested above, it will be assumed the cache has been abandoned. [V]

It would be far better if you decide, so please do something before then. Please don't send an email but instead follow the information/advice posted above.

Thanks for your cooperation,

Geocache Description:

Old Wentworth Wharf

Darling Street in front of the Wentworth Services Club. The wharf became the nucleus of the town and the region, where bullock teams hauled in the wool from outlying stations to load on board the steamers and barges.

The port was a busy one; in fact in 1890 in one week alone some 31 steamers were tied up at the wharf. The exports that year were valued at £1 276 202 and imports worth £654 042, which on any standard were huge sums of money. Wentworth's Customs Office was the busiest in New South Wales outside Sydney and Newcastle. A total of 420 boats steamed into Wentworth in 1890. In some years these craft shipped over 12 000 bales of wool from the Darling River woolsheds.
