Holmpton is unusual in that it is quite heavily wooded compared to the rest of the Holderness area, so it seemed suitable to place a cache amongst the trees.
Near this cache (but well outside the search area) is the local Chuch, St Nicholas's. The prsent chuch is largely Victorian, but the original church on the site was built around 1160. The graveyard is marked by the Commonwealth War Graves Commisison because it contains the graves of a Britsh sailor lost from a battleship in 1939, and of an unknown sailor of the Merchant Navy, buried in 1940. At the entrance to the churchyard there is also a memorial to the crew of an RAF bomber which crashed near the village in 1942.
