Location

Skelmanthorpe, near Huddersfield. Just under 7 metres from an unmarked road off Shelley Woodhouse Lane, near Shelley High School & College.

Participants

Plans

Marker-sign to be placed near the hashpoint.

I'll be on the 10:40am Transpennine Express train from Leeds if anyone wants to join me there instead.

  • Meet at Huddersfield rail station at 11:00am (plus or minus Train Delay Modifier), on the outside of the ticket gates. Wear something xkcd or Geohashing-related if you want to be recognised - if you want to recognise me, look for tgr. And don't be embarrassed: it's my first expedition too...
  • Head out to the hash by public transport, probably the 11:28 number 81 from K3 Lord Street; even if someone with a car wants to come, it seems a shame to drive when there are buses so nearby! That gets us to Shelley High School for 12:00. Get off one stop after. Bus stop's location is 53.5949, -1.6710 (so we won't miss it!)
  • Walk to the hashpoint.
  • Even if entering the field is a problem, we should be able to get within the requisite 10m radius of the hashpoint without leaving the road.
  • Create a non-permanent marker and put up a sign if possible.
  • Head back to Huddersfield rail station for coffee with anyone who wants it :)
