A Fine Pair 1731
Upton Lovell
Located just outside The Prince Leopold Inn, is a disused phone box that has been renovated, and turned into a library for the community. The renovation took place in 2012, and is still in a good condition today. To the right hand side, is a GR postbox. The two together make the fine pair you see today.
| Logging Etiquette: Geocache hiders sometimes go through a great deal of planning to place their caches. As a result, they'd like to hear your feedback on whether you liked or disliked any aspect of the hide, the journey or location, or if you feel that some cache maintenance is required. Single word, acronym, or "copy and paste" logs may be easier when you have a lot of caches to log, but it doesn't tell the hider or other finders anything about your adventure (or lack thereof) in finding the cache. Please keep this in mind when entering your log. |
The pub is right in the middle of nowhere. Myself and KieranVC15 were on a walk around the area, we walked back the same way we came and it wasn't until we were on our way back that we even noticed that this was a fine pair, it is so out of the way that we didn't expect it.
The cache itself is very fitting for the location, you are looking for a cache the size of a film canister.
Accessibility
The location is wheelchair and pushchair accessible, however, wheelchair users will likely require assistance to retrive the physical cache container.
Number 1878 in a series of caches where a red telephone box is in close proximity to a post box.
The only rules are that they have to be able to be photographed together, be not more than 100’ apart and the phone boxes have to be red.
If anybody would like to place 'A Fine Pair' of their own please do. I would just ask that you first visit www.afinepair.co.uk to request a number to avoid any duplication
mattd2k also keeps a public Bookmark List of this series. Once your cache is published please contact him via geocachingafinepair@gmail.com to have yours added
