Community Traditional Cache
malx194: I cycled past today by chance and saw that the whole hedge was being cut down by the Council! Don't know why or how they plan to develop the carpark or Philip Hall. Goodbye cache! I'll find a new location when I see what happens to the area

Angus Libraries recently produced a leaflet - Carnoustie Discovery Trail and I have placed some caches along the route so that the visitor can see and learn a little about Carnoustie.
The Discovery Trail starts at Carnoustie Library and Tourist Information Centre, opened in 1976. My caching route starts there also and covers the same ground as the Discovery Trail but in reverse. You can start wherever you want: High St (A930) up Lochty St, left along Maule St, right up Queen St, across the park, down Balmachie Rd and West Path, across Dundee Rd (A930) and along Camus St and Golf St towards the sea, over the railway bridge at Golf St station, left along Links Parade, out to the east end of the beach, back along the beach, up Ferrier St and right along High St back to the library (or continue along Links Parade to Carnoustie station)
Tourist information
The new Community Centre is being built here. Further along the road you can find ‘The Auld Nick’, once a police station, and the War Memorial and Remembrance Garden, opened in 1926 by the Earl of Strathmore. Going down Ferrier St you will come to the famous Dibble Tree (see separate cache) and the 19th Hole pub, which was formerly a boatyard connected to the sea by a canal before the railway cut it off. At the end of Ferrier St opposite the Rest Gardens is Bruce Court apartments, formerly the elegant Bruce Hotel. This served as the base for many ‘Open’ Golf championships where the rich and famous came to stay, such as Charlie Chaplin, Edward Prince of Wales and Yehudi Menuhin. Opposite is the memorial drinking fountain, erected in memory of John Winter, boot and shoe manufacturer, by his son Provost Winter.
