Location

1) In a harvested field between Fordham and Little Horkesley, Essex, UK.

Participants

Sourcerer

Plans

I went on impulse as I was quite close.

Expedition

Arrived. -- Sourcerer (talk) @51.9415,.8371 12:04, 21 August 2015 (GMT+01:00)

I had been delivering a guitar, a violin, a viola and a didgeridoo to Rob, a school teacher friend, in the hope that the instruments might get restored, find homes and get used. This was in south Suffolk. From there, north Essex was not much further and as usual this month, my local hashpoint was in the sea. So I visited London East.

I had programmed my car satnav incorrectly so I took an inefficient spiral route to the destination. The point was in a harvested field 45 metres from the field access where I could park. Easy!
