Arrived at the third of four planned points. -- Sourcerer @52.3751,.4949 14:16, 18 February 2013 (GMT)

This was attempt three of four on this day. The hashpoint was on the boundary between two agricultural fields. It might have been a pub geohash but the pub looked closed. For some reason, I got quite disorientated and set off in the wrong direction twice before zeroing in on the true point. The route to this hashpoint included a part of Thetford forest. This is a very nice place to visit.
