Geocache Description:


Lost History Series
“Q”
Bournemouth’s Past: Jack The Ripper
(21.12.12 - 15.6.14)
140 Finds / 2 Favourite Points

This Lost History series is a trip down memory lane at many of Lost2011’s archived caches. The caches are placed at previous and familiar locations, especially for active cachers in the last 4 years, yet I have tried hard to ensure a fresh hunt when searching, due to slightly different coordinates, enabling a different experience.

I hope you enjoy this series and discover previously unknown facts and occurrences about each particular cache, including how they came into being, and their eventual demise.

There are 26 film pots to find (A-Z), each with a bonus number which can be collected to help achieve the D5/T1.5 bonus cache for the real dedicated among you. To add to the challenge, these caches will only be in place for the recommended minimum life span, so don’t delay, get cracking today!

--------------------------------------------------

I knew about the story behind this cache from when I delivered post to it on my post round, back in the day. The story in an interesting one, however finding the right location for the container proved much harder than it should have been, and as a result, many found the cache without seeing the blue plaque.

For this present cache, however, the location couldn’t be much closer to the blue plaque if I had tried, and it should be a relatively straight forward retrieval.
