Geocache Description:

As a driving instructor, I often sit at the test centre in Hinckley wishing there was a cache nearby I could go and grab. As there isn't one, I decided to place my own.

Nearby there has also been quite extensive road improvements, resulting in some interesting local information being displayed. The published co-ordinates will take you to this spot. There is generally plenty of parking available on Brookside.

You could sit at home and research the answers first, but it would probably be quicker to go out and get them.
