This cache is located on the outskirts of the village of Higham Gobion.I have always loved the name when I've seen it on signs so I thought it was worth a cache.
This hilltop hamlet, which consists of a church, farm and small industrial unit and one or two houses, gets the second part of its name from the Gobion family, who resided in this area after the Norman invasion of 1066. The Anglican church, dedicated to St. Margaret, dates from c.1300, but was much restored during the Victorian period. It contains a monument to Dr. Edmund Castell, who died in 1674 and was a Professor of Arabic at Cambridge. He was a rector at Higham during the last years of his life and lived in the adjoining former rectory
The cache is a small clip top box containing:
log book
pencil
marble
badge
rubber
£1 coin for first to find
