Clissold Park Revisited #1: Lake Zone
I was surprised to note that this fine park in north London no longer has any cache, the 2 that were there having been eventually archived after repeated muggling. So I thought it necessary to rectify that caching gap . . .
The cache, a custom-made, bottle-top micro cache, is hidden just north of Runtzmere Lake on the northern edge of the park. Please take care when retrieving and replacing the cache to look out for muggles, to replace correctly concealed . . . and to not damage the cache location.
Brief History (Part 1):
Clissold Park is a designated 56 acre community park with with children's playgrounds., sports firelds, a bowlng green, tennis courts, cafe and some other attractions including terrapins in its lakes. It also comprises remains of the New River and some Capital Ring paths run though the park.
The villa, Clissold House (formerly Paradise House) was built in the 1790s, for Jonathan Hoare, a City merchant, Quaker, 
philanthopist and anti-slavery campaigner. It was created to be his idyll and the stretch of water which wends its way around the house was once part of the New River, a canalthat supplied London with clean water from Herfordshire - other remnants of the New River can be seen in Canonbury. It is a now a Grade II listed building and is used for refreshment rooms and events . . .
