Cobrac's Canal Cache Traditional Cache

This cache has been archived.

Team Cobrac: I'm going to archive this one as the nearby festivities seem to be an almost weekly event and also I won't be ably to maintain it there.

Hopefully I'll get the original container out somewhere else.

Geocache Description:

Small urban cache, big enough for some trackable/geocoins.

Thanks to Team Asalpaws for the gift of the container!

----- Please place it back with the 'skinny' bit pointing down, thanks! ----

Located in Castlefield, Manchester. There's been lots of re-development in the area but it keeps it's industrial past. An area with a very rich history.

Nearby is the Roman-era fort of Mamucium or Mancunium which gave its name to Manchester.

The, Bridgewater Canal, the world's first industrial canal built in 1764, terminates here.

One of the three bridges towering over the GZ was the world's first passenger rail line (which went to Liverpool).

----- Please place it back with the 'skinny' bit pointing down, thanks! ----

How many bridges can you see from the cache site?
