Geocache Description:

Originally a small cottage, the white house which borders Notley Road and Hoppit Mead has existed for 3 centuries - its estate occupied Hoppit Mead, the river and most of the land through to London Road.  It has been extended many times and also has a barn conversion next door.  So, for those who enjoy local history, next time you're on Notley Road cast your eyes over to the house and consider how much has changed in the area since the 1700s.


Full permission given by owners to hide cache just inside their property.

The cache is a custom hide, due to the previous hide being muggled.  You may need to step one foot off the path, but that's the extent of the 'off-roading'!  Parking is plentiful, but it's best to use Hoppit Mead to avoid causing issues on the main road.

There is high muggle activity, particularly around 3pm-4pm during term time...so, please use stealth when finding and hiding again.

If you see the owners, give them a wave - they'll know you're not nicking the cars then!

Congrats to Chudnut on FTF *difficulty upgraded a tad due to new type of hide - let me know if it's an appropriate rating* Tweezers might be an idea when you actually find the log...
