Geocache Description:

When you walk around any historic town or city much of the interesting architecture can be seen only by looking up. The Harborough Heights multi cache will take you on a short tour of the historic parts of the town centre. The answers to many of the questions can only be found by looking upwards above normal eye level.


The published coordinates will take you to the first historic way point. There is ample parking around the town centre, both time limited street parking and charged parking in the car parks. On Sundays most parking is free and unrestricted.
