The graticule in London East contains the East End of London, and extends through Basildon to Southend-on-sea, also covering Maidstone, Chelmsford, Harlow and Colchester. It includes such diverse locations as the O2 Milennium Dome, the Isle of Sheppey, and London Stansted Airport.
The graticule has boundaries from 52° to 51° latitude, and 0° to 1° longitude. When following the XKCD geohashing algorithm, append the fractional hash part to 51° latitude and 0° longitude.
Today's Location: [London East, United Kingdom]
Saturday meet-up locations
In darkest Thamesmead, just off the 244 bus route. Could only take sly photos due to dodgy looking locals.
The coordinates are right at the north of the grat, just east of Castle Hedingham. See here. MooUK cannot make it due to being broken.
The co-ordinates are in the middle of a field, with the closest civilisation either the small town/village of Hunsdon or the town of Ware. Reached by walking across country from Roydon train station. Found a swamp.
Other meet ups
- 2008-06-23 51 0 A group from Maidstone and it's surrounds are heading out to this conveniently close hash by foot, by bike, but probably not by plane. The hash may be sneakily relocated to the woods nearby if the field is found to be full of rapeseed for hay fever reasons.
- 2008-07-15 51 0 (tr00st) attempted to head over by bike for his first attempt at getting to some coordinates... Arrived at the field the coordinates were in at about 5:45pm - vegetation proved too thick for me to actually make it to the right point, got pretty close.
- 2009-01-15 51 0: Benjw visited from the Cambridge graticule, and successfully reached a grassy area just off a track off the B1256 south of Stansted Airport.
