Geocache Description:

The hunt for this small camouflaged cache will lead you to a view of a work by the internationally
(in)famous street artist Banksy.

Despite first appearing on the River Lym in February 2012, it was not until May 29th of the same year that this piece of street art was confirmed to have been created by notorious Bristol-based graffiti artist Banksy, after it became a featured work on his site, banksy.co.uk.

Depicting an origami crane with a fish gripped in its beak, the piece brought Lyme Regis into the news worldwide, and local tours were quick to add this location as a stop-off in their walks.

The cache is not at the above co-ordinates.

In order to obtain the co-ords for the cache, once at the headline co-ords, and after admiring Banksy's work, collect the following info;

The windows visible on the frontage of Lym House, +1 = A

The number of support struts on the right-hand set of railings, facing the Banksy piece = B

On the opposite side of the road;

The penalty for dumping = £2,C00

The embossed number on the yellow fire hydrant sign = D

The cache can be found at the following co-ordinates;
N 050.43.6AB W 002.56.1CD

At the time of placement, the cache contained a logbook & pencil in watertight bag.

Due to its location, this cache would be a good one to approach after completing the multi 'Lyme Past, Lyme Present' (GC3AYQW). In addition, by continuing along the river path, you will find yourself at the start-point of the River Lym Walk series.
