Location

Somewhere around Haigh Hall and gardens. Not actually too sure where that is, but we used to walk round the gardens quite often as kids; so I'll go stay with mum for the weekend.

Participants

Angel (talk)
Angel's mum

Plans

Get mum to give me a lift up to the hall, and walk around until I find out how close I can get to the hash. Hope it's not on the golf course, it's hard to tell.

Expedition

Somewhere around Haigh Hall; worth checking to see if it's reachable. -- Angel (talk) @53.5366,-2.6853 14:19, 13 May 2017 (GMT+01:00)

In the end, we found it without too much trouble. it was on the golf course, but could get there by mostly sticking to the paths, and without getting in the way of any golfers. Went the long way around on the way back to the car, grabbing some portals to improve my Ingress score for the week.
