Geocache Description:

A stroll (or cache and dash) around the lanes of Newburn.

I drive home from work down this lane everyday. The views are always beautiful, so I decided that this would be a perfect place for a cache! Cache is situated on Old Rome Drive, hence the name. Not sure why it's called that though!

Would be perfect as a cache and dash or on the way to/back from Flagstaff Hill. Worth bringing your camera as I've gotten some wonderful shots from here. You can see all the way from Shell Bay and Kincraig point to the east to Kinghorn in the west and across the Firth of Forth to Berwick Law, the Bass Rock and Edinburgh.

At time of placing cache contained:
Shot glasses
Pen and Logbook
Pogs
Gold dubloon TB
Clancy TB

Please swap fairly :)

As has been mentioned in logs, the coordinates are a bit out. That's because I used google maps to find the coordinates and not a GPS. Clue item should help though.
