Geocache Description:

**Due to problems over caching with the Police. Please avoid acting suspiciously whilst searching for the cache, and if challenged, explain about geocaching**

This is our first cache in London and the first of this type. For this we have chosen an area surrounded by interesting buildings. The remains of Christ Church are to the North whilst the Stock Exchange is to the South. A few moments walk down Newgate Street brings you to the sight of the old Newgate Prison, now the location of the Central Criminal Court or Old Bailey. The same distance the other way brings you to St Pauls.

You will need your own pen / pencil to sign the log - which is at the above co-ords.

Although we could have classed this as a normal cache we felt it would be unfair as there is no actual box at the co-ords, hence the "puzzle/catch all" listing.

To begin your search you should be stood on the traffic island next to a clock tower and remember the old saying "look with your eyes not your hands" Good luck.

We are now in the top twenty London favourite caches... Thanks to everyone who has voted for us... and maybe to those to come?... LOL.
