Geocache Description:

Governors of NSW This series is placed to complement the Mount Gary series placed on the adjacent hill across the divided road entrance to Goulburn. Each cache will highlight a NSW Governor, whose fame, or infamy as the case may be, is now part of NSW history.

Admiral Sir Harry Holdsworth Rawson GCB GCMG, is chiefly remembered for overseeing the British Benin Expedition of 1897 that burned and looted the city of the Kingdom of Benin, now in Nigeria. No shame was attached to the event at the time, which amounted to a punitive expedition, and Admiral Rawson was appointed Governor of New South Wales, 27 May 1902 – 27 May 1909

Note that the direct route to this cache is a 75m climb up the steep hillside track, so I have increased the difficulty level accordingly
