Location

Maltby, east of 522, under some power lines, and just north of a sculpture.

Participants

Plans

Stop by on the way to work, perhaps a Maltby Cafe cinnamon roll afterwards.

Expedition

Did my research ahead of time; while on a large lot, there is also a set of power wires overhead - which means access roads. Google streetview showed an open gate leading to the pasture, and the geohash not far away. Google overhead showed an interesting garden formation also, definitely worth checking out.

Unfortunately, on arrival I found the gate closed and locked, with a phone number to call for access. Deciding that my access would probably be more nuisance than novelty, I turned back and headed to work. On the way, I stopped at the somewhat famous Maltby Cafe for a cinnamon roll... the size of a plate!
