  • 07 July 2011 (Fri): Sourcerer visited the promontory that separates the ports of Harwich and Felixtowe. The hashpoint was right on a public footpath.
  • 21 November 2010 (Sun): A small bottle bank in Taunton Road, Walton, Felixtowe, Suffolk, UK. Sourcerer visited the point and explored Felixtowe.
  • 24 September 2010 (Fri): A sheep field east of East Bergholt, Suffolk, UK. Sourcerer made a circular walk on public footpaths with one short cut across a sheep field to take in the hash point. Neil believes this is the first documented expedition in this graticule and claims the virgin geohash. This was hash 1 of a pentahash taking in Canterbury, London East, London West, Northampton and the Cambridge graticules. MagicIan was also trying to lay claim to the virgin geohash in the graticule but was a couple of hours too late.
