The Old Granary Traditional Cache

This cache is temporarily unavailable.

Hanoosh: Hi

This cache has been flagged to me as one that requires some attention by the cache owner as it has either not been found for a while or there is a reported issue with the cache.

May I ask that the cache owner checks the cache to confirm it is still in situ and/or deal with any maintenance required and/or give an indication of when it may be up and running again for people to find by adding a note to the cache page so that other cachers and reviewers can see what your intentions are.

The Geocache Maintenance guideline explains a CO's responsibility towards checking and maintaining the cache when problems are reported.

Once the cache has been sorted out, please enable it.

If this cannot be done or if you no longer wish to maintain the cache then the listing should be archived.

Sadly if there is no response to this log after 30 days I will have to archive the cache. In the meantime I am disabling the cache.

Please DO NOT send an email about this cache in case I do not receive it. Posting a reviewer note will ensure your cache does not get archived in error.

Please note that the guidelines say that if a cache is archived by a reviewer or Geocaching HQ staff for lack of maintenance then it will not be unarchived. Here is the link to the relevant part of the guidelines Ownership after publication.

Regards

Geocache Description:


The Old Granary is on the northern banks of the River Crouch at Battlesbridge. This Hamlet straddles the upper reaches of the River Crouch. The small narrow bridge that links the two sides of Battlesbridge was the main throughfare before the A1245 was installed. Boats use to come up the Crouch to collect grain and other produce. Battlesbridge was classed as a small port in it's day. The Old Granary was a four storey mill with two sets of grinding stones. The cache that you are looking for is a small camouflage container It is low down within one of the two close to the sea wall.
