4.23. Unarchiving a Geocache

The archiving of a geocache is intended to be a permanent status. That is why only community volunteer reviewers and Geocaching HQ staff have the capability to unarchive it. This is done only in rare circumstances and only if it meets the current Geocache Listing Guidelines.

If a geocache is archived by a reviewer or staff for lack of maintenance it will not be unarchived.

Geocache Description:

A short multi named after the early aboriginal inhabitants of Eastwood, starting at the railway station. Takes less than an hour; about 1km walking if you get the clues right :)

Eastwood is originally thought to have been inhabited by the Wallumedegal Aboriginal tribe, who lived in the area between the Lane Cove and Parramatta Rivers prior to European settlement. Eastwood is located at the edge of the Hornsby Plateau with the suburbs of Dundas Valley and Denistone on its western and southern sides, respectively, as the land falls away down to the Cumberland Plain.

The area of Eastwood was granted between the years of 1790 and 1803 to marines of the NSW Corps. John Love, a private was granted 90 acres (360,000 m2) here in 1794, described as North Brush, in the Field of Mars Common.

The land was then acquired by William Kent who already held land in what is now Epping. The land was purchased by the Irish free settler William Rutledge for 288 pounds in 1835, who built 'Eastwood House' in 1840. This house is now part of Marist College Eastwood. In 1863 Edward Terry purchased the estate and upon his death in 1905, the estate was sub-divided.

Today it is a large urban centre in the north of Sydney of over 14,000 people, with a large shopping area. Over the past few decades Eastwood has become increasingly multicultural and has a large Chinese and Korean community. Eastwood is best known as the place of where the Granny Smith Apple was first grown.
