Geocache Description:


This geocache is a remake of the cache hidden abroad that was archived.

This geocache is a small plastic container big enough for trackables and swag. Please try not to knock the rock/s. Make sure that you place the container back carefully so it doesn't show or doesn't slide out of position.

 

VIEWS AND ACCESSIBILITY

Make sure you take a look at the beautiful parks in and around the area. There is also the foreshore, with spectacular views and lots of photo opportunities. Easy access around the area for bikes and plenty of seats to take a rest if needed. There is also a direct view of the ANZAC bridge.

TRANSPORT

There is a bus stop very near this hide for those who live far away. The bus (431) goes to the end of Glebe Point Road and though the city. Change at Broadway for buses to Newtown and Bondi (422, 423, 426, 428, m30, 370), and change at Glebe library for buses towards Balmain, Annandale, and Leichhardt (433, 370).

HISTORY

The street is lined with terrace houses and is one of the most historic streets in Sydney, dating from the early days of settlement. In the 19th century, Glebe was home to architect, Edmund Blacket, who had migrated from England. Blacket built his family home, Bidura, on Glebe Point Road in 1858, designing it along conventional Victorian Regency lines. He also designed St John's Church, on the corner of Glebe Point Road and St Johns Road. The church was built from 1868 to 1870. There was an active tramway on Glebe Point Road between 1892 and 1958 until the trams were replaced by buses. Roadworks near the Bridge Road cross in late 2009 uncovered a section of the original tram tracks. The City of Sydney have left these exposed to serve as a historical reminder
