This cache is placed to coincide with Jack in the Green 2016.
In the open space at the southern end of the Old Town is a island area of pavement. Here, in years gone by, the Winkle Club ran evening dances not only during carnival weeks but on numerous other occasions as well - and so this area became know as Winkle Island. Winkle Island is the symbolic gathering place of the Winkle Club and at the very heart of the Winkle Club. The small island is the central meeting point for many outdoor events such as the famous 'Hastings Old Town Week', 'Jack In The Green' as well as many other local events and street performances. A giant winkle standing on the pavement is used as a collecting box for charity purposes.
