Hoojar: This location did not seem favourable for a geocache. Maybe if I archive this a better placed cache will appear as part of the LIPT.

So just where is this place, and what are it's boundaries? Well, thankfully for us, the Internet knows all: http://goo.gl/maps/Cc4wc . According to Wikipedia: Berkeley is a suburb of Wollongong, New South Wales. The suburb is located in Wollongong's southern suburbs, on the northern shore of Lake Illawarra. Berkeley was named by Robert Jenkins, from 'The Worst Country in the World' by Patsy Trench: "Robert Jenkins became bankrupt shortly after arriving in the colony but went on to become the third richest man in NSW. He was a director of the Bank of NSW. In 1817 Robert & his wife Jemima were given 1000 acres in the Illawarra district which Robert named Berkeley after his home in Gloucestershire, England. He is buried in the Berkeley Pioneer Cemetery"
