Moonjay: This cache was placed nearly 12 years ago by Mr Elusive and has been found by exactly 5400 geocachers. As there's only been a small number of traditional caches in the city centre of Bath, this one has always been very popular with tourist.
Many thanks to everybody who's visited this cache in the last 12 years and for all the lovely log entries.
In every end is the seed of a new beginning ... water it well.

Geocache Description:

The site of many a hanging over the years, the tree in the centre of the green was used for public hangings of crooks, felons and criminals. The cache is accessable to all but there are many streets in the area with cobbled stones under foot.


Located a short walk from The Bath Abbey and the Roman Baths, this is a nice quiet corner of the city with a good bit of shade on a sunny day provided by the huge tree in the middle of the green. There are some quaint little shops around this quarter and a pleasant public house to refresh you after a hard day of caching or shopping!

The cache is a magnetic 35mm film canister and you'll have to be very discreet with lots of muggles around! Please don't lose the lid. The magnets aren't that strong but will work at the correct angle.

Due to the Abbey Green being a 'Scheduled Ancient Monument', the cache is placed just outside Abbey Green on one of the approaching roads, but I hope you still enjoy the Abbey Green area itself. Please bring a pen/pencil to complete the log.

FTF goes to Jenny&James - well done!
