The Croydon Crawl Multi-Cache

This cache has been archived.

Southerntrekker: Hi There

As the owner has not responded to either my log or my colleague's previous log requesting that they check this cache I am archiving it.

Please note that once the cache has been archived, this can not be undone. This is explained in the Help Center - http://support.groundspeak.com//index.php?pg=kb.page&id=70

You will need to create a new listing, put it back in for review and as long as it meets today's guidelines and no other caches have been published in the area causing a proximity problem, then it will be published.

Regards

I’ve always found the architecture above shops interesting, people never see it as there to busy going about their business, looking down at the pavement and in the shops. This multi will take you to different buildings where you will have to spot a particular feature, which most people would never notice. The walk starts down the West Croydon end of North End and finishes up George Street. There are 9 buildings to visit, remember look up! All the features are on one building at each location.

Stage 1 (given co ords) - Right hand side, The ………. Bell, number of letters = A
N51 22.658 W0 6.136

Stage 2 - Right hand side. Under the dome, number of arches formed by pillars behind the net = B
N51 22.610 W0 6.111

Stage 3 - Left hand side, number of faces looking at you (look carefully they are small) = C
N51 22.555 W0 6.084

Stage 4 - Right hand side, number of faces looking at you from behind the nets = D
N51 22.516 W0 6.071

Stage 5 - Left hand side, number of coloured squares = E
N51 22.485 W0 6.047

Stage 6 - Left hand side, number of large columns = F
N51 22.459 W0 6.037

Stage 7 - Right hand side, what city was the house based in? number of letters = G

Stage 8 - Right hand side, the date above the building opposite the tram stop (red brick). 18H6
N51 22.435 W0 5.927

Stage 9 - Left hand side, date above the pub 18I7
