HFH1 - Isengard Traditional Cache

This cache has been archived.

BenjiBeanz: Hi Andy, and everyone else.

I meant to get on here and archive the cache Friday, but I didn't get round to it. I've been to the cache four times now with the intention of replacing the cache, however each time there's been too many muggles about to even attempt placing the cache. I don't live particularly near the city centre so I'm not able to just pop in and out; I need to take the bus in and it takes time. Anyway, I'm sorry to all of you that have been hoping that this one would come back up but you're going to have to be disappointed.

Benji

Geocache Description:

Isengard

Isengard was built in the Second Age around the tower of Orthanc by
the Númenóreans in exile. Its location was at the north-western
corner of Rohan, guarding the Fords of Isen from enemy incursions
into Calenardhon together with the fortress of Aglarond to its
south.


Known in Norwich as Cow Tower

"Cow Tower is one of the earliest purpose-built artillery
blockhouses in England, this tower was built in 1398-9 to control a
strategic point in Norwich's city defences"
[Taken from Norwich
County Council's signage]

Cow Tower is a place as a "foreigner" I love to visit when I head
into Norwich and wouldn't have found it without Beanz. There are a
few places to park and there are paths to GZ making it
wheelchair/stroller accessible ~ Panda

Please take care in placing and replacing the cache! Might think about getting STICKy or possibly damp :P
