There's another one about half a kilometer South East on this road that's been all renovated and 'prettified' but I prefer this one. The village of Ypsonas (pronounced Eep soh nass by the way) has this on it's village 'logo'. I don't think there was anything else of interest they could find and were feeling a bit overshadowed by Kolossi and it's 15th Century castle.
I found this on the village website...
Ypsonas is a village that can amaze you with its spectacular increase of population from the past century until today. In 1881 the village had 3 inhabitants that increased to 4 in 1891. In 1901 the inhabitants had increased to 21, only to be reduced to 12 in 1911. In 1921 the population run into 167. In 1931 the inhabitants numbered 256 and by 1946 they increased to 492. In 1960 they increased to 1496 and in 1973 to 2043. In 1982 the inhabitants numbered 3061 and in 2011 the population increased to 10950.In 1881 the village had 3 inhabitants that increased to 4 in 1891 by 2011 the population was 10950. Although Ypsonas is considered by many as having been created during recent years by the inhabitants of other villages (mainly Lofou), which owned land in the region, things are not quite so. Ypsonas existed as a settlement since medieval years. De Masse Latri includes Ypsonas among the villages that belonged to the King of Cyprus himself during the era of the Frank domination. The village is marked under the name Ipsona in old maps. The village probably must have been destroyed in 1426 when the Mamelukes of Egypt invaded Cyprus through the bay of Avdimou, unsuccessfully attacked Episkopi, marched toward Limassol which they seized. Then again it could have been destroyed in 1570 with the invasion of the Turks in Cyprus as they landed in Limassol which they sacked and then -burning and looting -arrived at Polemidia. After that many inhabitants of Lofou would seasonally migrate to Ypsonas so as to cultivate or harvest the crops of their fields in the region. Thus, for many years, people from Lofou inhabited the village for a few months per year. These people vacated Ypsonas from January until March and from the middle of August until November. Finally, many of the migrating farmers remained permanently in Ypsonas, abandoning Lofou and the other neighbouring villages. This started occurring during the era of the British domination. The love of the inhabitants of Ypsonas for the land can be seen through the fact that many of the locals own land in areas neighbouring the community. Some of those are Erimi, Kolossi, Koilani, Paramytha, Alassa, Polemidia, Trachoni, and Kantou.
Cache is a nano so nothing but a log, it has an extraction device, but tweezers might be useful if it fails.
This is a very busy road and added to that the lady in the flower shop is going to get very curious so you need be subtle in your investigations!
