This cache is in Moat Park in Dundonald, Dundonald is a busy area as it has a large hospital and the majority of traffic from the Ards Penninsula has to pass through it to get to Belfast. Dundonald refers to a 12th century Norman fort, or Dún, Dún Dónaill, that stood in the town. One of the largest in Ireland, the man-made hill that the fort stood on is still in existence. Although the mound is commonly referred to as 'the moat' this is, in fact, a corruption of the word 'motte' and refers to the fact that this defensive structure was built in the style of a motte and bailey. Anyway enough......... There are various entrances to Moat Park but my recommended entrance which has loads of free parking spaces would be off the Comber Road beside the Lawn Bowling Club. The Cache. It's a disguised micro, containing only a log. You will need your own pen/pencil to sign it. The log should be able to be extracted easily enough but you guys all carry tweezers anyway....don't you? There is a river quite close to GZ so keep a close eye on children and dogs. Please be gentle with the cache and replace exactly as you find it in its hidey hole. Why not have a game of Pooh Sticks whilst here or visit other caches close by, hidden by Balatty and Midnighthunter. Church Quarter BCDR SERIES # 1
