***IMPORTANT - Cache is NOT available 24/7. Photo MUST be taken at the statue. Any other photos will be deleted without warning. *** Photos of the locked gate DO NOT COUNT!
***Please ensure you check the opening hours before visiting! In my experience the market is closed on Sundays and on Bank Holiday Mondays, during the days it is opening I find it usually closes around 5pm. Ensure you check the opening hours before visiting!!. ***
The English Market is a municipal food market right in the heart of Cork city and occupies an area stretching from Princes Street to the Grand Parade. It is made-up of Princes Street Market and Grand Parade Market and is regarded for its mid-19th century architecture, and locally produced artisan food. It has been visited by the Queen of England and has also regularly featured in the tv show "The young offenders"
One of the many icons in the market is this beautiful fountain which just so happens to be the subject of this virtual!!

VALID PHOTO:
Note that the market is not open 24/7 but is typically open from around 8am to 6pm (apart from Sundays in which case it is closed). It might also be closed on special occasions such as bank holidays. Ensure you check the opening hours before you visit!!
As the building cover affects the co-ords I have placed the starting co-ords at the Princes Street entrace to the market (as you enter from here you will see the fountain in front of you).
TO LOG THIS VIRTUAL
You MUST take a photo of you with your hand somewhere on the fountain in order to log a find. Include your face and your hand if you wish however just your hand will suffice. Any other photos (including you standing at the closed entrance gate will not count)
If you are geocaching as part of a group then you all need to have your own unique photo
