Geocache Description:


Bowline
The bowline (pronounced 'bo-lin') is used to form a non-slip loop in the end of a rope. It was traditionally the climbers' waist knot before harnesses were used.

Local area
A house called Whitewebbs was in the area by the 16th owned by Robert Huicke the doctor who built a conduit for water supply to his it. This house was later associated with the Gunpowder Plot since Guy Fawkes visited there the night before the plot. It then had a succession of owners. It eventually passed to the Garnault family and then Henry Bowles, after which it was demolished. It is said to have been near Myddelton House.
