Ye Olde Store Traditional Cache

The Jones Bond Store is of historical significance as one of the largest surviving 19th century store complexes in Victoria and one of the few remaining links with Southbank's early industrial and maritime past. The buildings remind us of the character of late-19th century warehousing and demonstate that the river bank in their vicinity was once a hive of shipping activity. They show how warehouses and shipping freight facilities were more closely integrated in the fabric of the city in the years before containerisation and heavy freight haulage demanded more specialised and separate freight precincts. The simple but substantial character of the buildings reflects Melbourne's growing importance as a port city in the post-gold rush years. In the mid 1880s it was upgraded with hydraulic lift technology.

The cache container is a small container hidden in a typical inner city way, it can hold small swaps and trackables. Please be vigilant against muggles in your search.
