Welcome to the Second cache in the embankment series, the cache you are looking for here is a novelty container about the size of a film canister.
Stand at the cache location and look south East, you will now see Newnham Bridge, The old Newnham Bridge much repaired over the years stood on the site of the present concrete bridge and spanned that part of the river which once served as the Mill Race for Newnham Priory Mill with the mill pond later becoming Newnham Baths. The old rustic wooden bridge was swept away in a flood in 1936 and was replaced by the present concrete structure now dwarfed by the Inner Relief Road. make a note of what year the old bridge was swept away, it may be useful later, note this number as BCDE (YYYY=BCDE)
