Quick cache and dash with a nice view of the Newark Castle. Cache is not on castle grounds. Congratulations to BobESkunky; Double points for being FTF on my first ever cache hide. Thank you!
This is an easy cache and dash, accessible from the car park near Newark Castle. Please bring your own writing utensil to sign the log. Cache is NOT on castle grounds, but in public car park area. Newark Castle is a well-preserved castle sited on the south shore of the estuary of the River Clyde in Port Glasgow, Inverclyde, Scotland, where the firth gradually narrows from the Firth of Clyde and navigation upriver is made difficult by shifting sandbanks. For centuries this location was used to offload seagoing ships, and led to the growth of Port Glasgow close to the castle on either side and to the south. When dredging techniques made the Clyde navigable as far as Glasgow the port became a shipbuilding centre, and the castle was surrounded by shipyards. Ferguson Shipbuilders, the last shipyard on the lower Clyde, stands close to the west of the castle, but the shipyards to the east were removed around the 1980s and new landscaped areas formed to the east of Newark Castle, opening up scenic views of the castle and across the Clyde from a new bypass road.
