This cache was originally going to be a companion to a tree climb on the opposite side of the oval. Something hard or easy to choose from! Farmers 5 also had an unpublished cache nearby however, which took some time to create! So I encourage you to go find 
Bushranger Field instead, it is a good one! :)
Collector
Tiny historic township, now by-passed, on the road from Goulburn to Canberra
Located 228 km from Sydney via the Hume Highway, Collector was, until recently, a stopover for travellers from Sydney. It was a tiny township which seemed to be little more than a pub and service station. Then the town was by-passed by the Federal Highway.
The area was first settled by Europeans when T.A. Murray was granted land in 1829. By 1837 Murray had built himself a substantial home and that same year a postal service began from Goulburn across the flat plains to Lake George and down to Yass. This inevitably meant the development of staging posts and the towns of Gundaroo and Collector sprang up. It is said that, in spite of its obviously 'English' name, the town takes its name from an Aboriginal word 'colegdar'.
Collector's history is the history of the roads which passed through it. When horse and bullock were the main means of transportation the town prospered as it was a day's journey from Goulburn. It was during this time that it had five inns and a number of stores. When Canberra was chosen as the national capital the town benefited as the Barton Highway, later to become the Federal Highway, passed through the town and consequently was kept in good condition. Today the Federal Highway by-passes the town but it is still worth visiting for the historic Bushranger Hotel and the memorabilia associated with Ben Hall's bushranger gang.
