Whitehorse park Traditional Cache

Your gps might have difficulty locating this one, so I have raised the difficulty on the cache. The container is a 60ml screw top containing a mini rubber duckie some chef buttons and a log with space for small tb's please replace as found and mind the muggles as this is a short-cut for the locals. More to follow Happy hunting.

The site of Whitehorse Road Recreation Ground was acquired by Croydon Corporation in 1888 as an informal play area for local children in a densely populated district and work was completed by 1891. It was laid out with a perimeter gravel path, 250 trees and grass, and a clump of trees, seat and drinking fountain were moved. In 1936 an enclosed rest garden was created for the elderly, which had circular raised areas of planting and a shelter, the latter later removed. Opposite the recreation ground there used to be a large fishpond, now grassed over as Boulogne Road Playground
