This cache has been archived.

Lactodorum: Hi, this looks like the cache needs some TLC. Could the owner please undertake a maintenance visit to check it out and replace any damaged items. In the meantime I'm archiving it but I'll happily unarchive it if/when it's sorted assuming it still meets the guidelines.

Thanks, Lactodorum

Geocache Description:

This is a key safe attached to a metal object with magnets.

As you exit Hyde Park in Westminster, you may pass through Victoria Gate. If you look into the yard on the corner, you will observe hundreds of tiny headstones, all lined up through the inner garden. It can only be a pet cemetery, and some of the clues are found on the headstones, if you can read them..

Pet Cemetery will be found at the coordinates above. You will not need to leave the pavement to retrieve or replace the cache, but you should be mindful of the vehicle and foot traffic nearby, since it fronts a busy street. Most people will ignore you if it appears that you are doing something other than digging around in the ivy. The cache contains a log only, so please bring your own pen or pencil. When replacing the log, make sure it is protected from view just as you found it.

Make sure you look through the iron fence to see all the headstones inside. This is something you don't see every day in London.
