Location
In a field next to the river Linge in Oosterwijk, near Leerdam (South Holland province).
Participants
Expedition
I decided to try this hash, though I wasn't sure it would be accessible. Turns out it wasn't: there's a small ditch around the field along with a wire fence. It looks like some sheep are living there. Took some pictures and then went museum-hopping. First to Museum GeoFort in Herwijnen, which is about earth science and cartography, so actually somewhat relevant to geohashing. Recommended if you're in the area! Then I went to the Glass Museum in Leerdam (which used to be the centre of the glass industry), and finally to Gorcums Museum in Gorinchem (nice little local museum).

The hash is about 500 metres ahead, in a field.
Ditches and fences block our way. Lloyd is disappointed.
Proof of failure.
There was this cute little house. Don't know what it's for, but apparently it's closed.
