This graticule covers the parts of the United Kingdom (UK) from 52° to 53° latitude, and from 1° to 2° longitude. A bit over half of it is land, including parts of Norfolk and Suffolk and much of their coastlines.

- 2009-03-09 (Monday): There hasn't been any activity yet in this graticule, so Benjw came up from Cambridge to grab a hash in some pleasant UEA-owned woodland near Cringleford.
Local Geohashers
- Borbus is bike powered and in Norwich.
- jaydublu is still about, but doesn't do boats or Suffolk!
- Otarru is bike powered and in Norwich during term time, any place else in the world during holidays. :]
- MagicIan is based just east of Norwich and will consider any inland hash if he's around
