Geocache Description:

A gap in the hedge at Overtoun Park


This cache is a small box with notebook, pencil, and wee treats laugh

It's a good one if you're searching with kids, as there's a great play park, and space to run about! 

The park is named after industrialist Lord Overtoun, John Campbell White, who bestowed the land to the Royal Burgh of Rutherglen. He was also the owner of White's Chemical Company. The cast iron bandstand was created by Walter MacFarlane & Co at their Saracen Foundry. It bears the inscription Presented by Sir James Fleming Knight of Woodburn to the Corporation of the Royal Burgh of Rutherglen, 1914. There is also a lovely fountain, dedicated to Queen Victoria's jubilee and decorated with golden owls.
