St A Stroll - Museum Traditional Cache

This cache has been archived.

HardwiB: Hi,

Sorry for the delay in posting again but with Christmas etc its all been a bit hectic.
I've decided to archive the cache as when I returned to replace it I found the museum is now closed!
Part of the point of this cache was to get people to the museum, so now that it is gone.....

Thank you to everyone who came looking and especially to everyone who visited the museum as well.

Cheers,

HardwiB

Geocache Description:


Another cache in my series that will (hopefully) take cachers to some of the more scenic/interesting parts of the city. The series is designed so that with a 30 minutes stroll you can pick up a number of different caches.

This cache has been hidden outside the Museum of St Albans. This museum gets somewhat overlooked by it's flashier Roman cousin down in Verulamium, but it has tons of info on the history of St Albans and the surrounding area. It's well worth a look around if you have the time/inclination.

This cache is hidden in the grounds outside the museum entrance. There is some kind of sculpture situated there. Despite living in St Albans for many many years I still don't know what it's meant to be. A turtle? A seashell? Who knows? The history of the sculpture was lost many generations ago, very much Stonehenge.

Cache has been designed to blend in with it's surroundings, but if you're smart, you should be able to work it out. Due to container size please bring your own writing implement. You may be able to hide small items in the cache and possibly even a small trackable.

As previous logs have stated, museum staff are aware of the cache and seem to be a very friendly bunch. Don't be afraid to say hello and please do visit the museum if you get a chance!
