La Lunatica:

This cache has been flagged by Geocaching HQ as one that may need attention. I notice that no action has been taken by the owner to correct the issue. Could the owner please check this cache and give an indication of when it may be sorted out. If there is no response to this log after 30 days I will archive the cache. In the meantime I am disabling the cache.

Guidelines:

  • You are responsible for occasional visits to your cache to ensure it is in proper working order, especially when someone reports a problem with the cache (missing, damaged, wet, etc.) or posts a Needs Maintenance log. Temporarily disable your cache to let others know not to search for it until you have addressed the problem.

You are permitted a reasonable amount of time - generally, up to 4 weeks – in which to check on your cache. If a cache is not being maintained, or has been temporarily disabled for an unreasonable length of time, we may archive the listing.

Could the cache owner please place a note on the cache page so that other cachers and I can see what your intentions are.

If you no longer wish to maintain the cache then the listing should be archived.

Please DO NOT send an email about this cache in case I do not receive it. Posting a reviewer note will ensure your cache does not get archived in error.

Please note that the guidelines say that if a cache is archived by a reviewer or Geocaching HQ staff for lack of maintenance then it will not be unarchived. Here is the link to the relevant part of the guidelines Ownership after publication.

Geocache Description:


GUNPOWDER PLOT

A series of caches which form a loop, of a little over 2 miles, around the historic village of Ashby St. Ledgers. This cache and number #1 can also be done as a ‘cache and dash’.

The series will take you to five locations with a bonus cache if you wish to use the clues.

The loop takes you past a timbered Gatehouse near to the Church and Manor which was used to plan the Gunpowder Plot. Robert Catesby, a leading figure in the Gunpowder Plot stayed at the Manor with his Mother on his flight from London.

Parts of the Church date back to 1300’s where you can see medieval and Georgian wall paintings which were uncovered in the 70’s. Throughout the village you will be able to see many houses which were designed or altered by the famous architect, Edwin Lutyens. For more info: www.;ashbystledgers.info or www.ashby-st-ledgers-church.info

The caches are mostly 35mm canisters. Take note of the code in each cache to enable you to make your way to the Bonus.

Parking is available throughout the village but please be sensitive to the residents. We would suggest the middle of the village at N52 18 521, W001 09 905 for the loop which begins by road.
