Geocache Description:


This cache used to be the 51st in the 'A Fine Pair' series of caches where a red telephone box is in close proximity to a post box. The only rule is that they have to be able to be photographed together, and the phone boxes have to be red.

 

Sadly early in 2019 the phone box was removed, so now just the postbox remains, however the cache has been reincarnated.

 

A nice easy multi, with the final location a short walk away.

The cache is not at the published co-ordinates, but the phone box was, however as of Sept 2016 it has been under threat of removal, and in January 2019 it was removed, and so the telephone number that formed the starting point of this multi is no longer visible.

 

However next to the published coordinates where the phone box stood is a lamp post, that has 2 digit number in green attached to it, which we will call ab.

The same lamppost has a 5 digit number stuck to it in white on a black background 000cd.

The postbox is on the opposite side of the road and its Postbox Number is GUef ghD.

 

The final cache can be found at .....
