Geocache Description:

A set of very small caches especially set for “The Defective Detectives” who requested some more “pointless micros” in our glorious county, as much as pointless urban micros go against what I feel caching is all about, here's a few for the DD's and the big fluffy doggie!

Here in the first of the series is “The A38 Road Bridge”, hidden behind a fence in a mix of ivy, brambles and rubbish – what a stunning location!

A few metres away you can admire the speeding traffic hammering up and down the A38, known locally, at least to the elderly ladies who frequent a local charity shop as “The Motorway” although it’s obviously just a Dual Carriageway.

But wait!, that’s not all. On the other side of the road from the cache is a hidden architectural gem – designed by George Gilbert Scott and his partner William Bonython Moffatt, is the original and now unused Liskeard Union Workhouse. The security fencing is particularly fetching and watch out for the Security Guard.

There’s loads more information about the Workhouse here http://www.workhouses.org.uk/Liskeard

This cache features my patented “Birdie Polar Logging system” ™, a convoluted and clever yet totally pointless system. Cachers with long names should log on the outer circles, those with very short names, in the centre. Watch out for muggles, please report lack of rubbish in the cache area – I’ll pop round and scatter some more – and please don’t make this cache a favourite – don’t, or else!
