I drove to the point as planned and parked nearby. With my tennis ball in hand, I walked towards the house where the geohash was. It wasn't difficult to find, but you'll see on the route log that I walked past the point initially. This was because a nearby neighbour had just gotten into their car and started driving past. I didn't want to raise any alarm so waited until it wouldn't look overly suspicious and walked back towards the house. | I drove to the point as planned and parked nearby.

Contents
Location
In a back garden of a house in Lennoxtown.
Participants
Plans
After volunteering, KerrMcF plans to quickly drive to the geohash point and drive back home. There shouldn't be many issues with reaching the point as I plan to bring and "accidentally" lose a tennis ball down the side path of the house.
Expedition
KerrMcF
I drove to the point as planned and parked nearby. With my tennis ball in hand, I walked towards the house where the geohash was. It wasn't difficult to find, but you'll see on the route log that I walked past the point initially. This was because a nearby neighbour had just gotten into their car and started driving past. I didn't want to raise any alarm so waited until it wouldn't look overly suspicious and walked back towards the house.
Nobody was home at the time, so I didn't need the tennis ball and walked straight through the side passageway to the point. I didn't take any photos of the surrounding area due to it being somebody's property, but the exact point of the geohash seemed to be on a nice purple bench. I took my proof and left, walking back to the car and driving home. If the homeowner happens to see this at some point in the future, I appreciate your unintentional hospitality.
