About

On 27 May 2008, the first day of the 30W Time Zone Rule, the geohash for Carlisle using the algorithm was along the River Wenning, just outside Wennington, at 54.125367°, -2.577111°, within walking distance of a train station.

Consensus so far seems to have put the meetup location on the near (road-) side of the river, not across the river, as the map says.

There was a stone structure in attendance. Was that built by a geohasher earlier in the day?
