Geocache Description:

Inspired by the following links;
(http://www.cityoflondon.gov.uk/leisure_heritage/corp_history/coal_posts.htm) & (http://www.cityoflondon.gov.uk/leisure_heritage/corp_history/coal_tax_posts.PDF)

this is our first cache, and the start of the London Coal Post Series, there are only another 200 or so Coal Posts to go!!!.

You have a choice of two parking spots for this cache set in the lovely Wormley Wood Nature Reserve. From the North we recommend the Car Park on White Stubbs Lane TL 327 065. From the East go for TL 332 055, where Bread and Cheese Lane (great name) meets Beamont Road. (nb Keep any dogs on leads from this way as the sign on the neighbouring farm says he will shoot them if they chase his chickens!!! nice eh).

When you find the post, your reward is near; where you will find the following....

Standard 2.5l Tupperware box, containing;

Disposable camera (first 27 please take a pic)
Playmobil Pirate
Travel Bug 'Rubber Ducky' 422391
Tiger Balm
Mini Disc (The Two Victorian Gentleman's fave tunes)
Lego Darth Vader Key Ring
Foreign cash
Jumping Beanz
'Magic Tree' air freshener

Good luck,

SteveB67 and 'The Two Victorian Gentlemen'

ps ignore the grid ref. on the web link, we reckon it is half a mile out.
