On seeing that this geohash was relatively close to town, I hopped on my bike and made my way out there. Had two slight problems:

  1. I don't have a GPS.
  2. Did create Google Map directions for getting there, but forgot to get the print out of the map showing the exact location in the field it was in.

Got out to the stretch of road I wanted but in the process of trying to remember where the hash was from memory, got myself disorientated and was looking on the north side of the road and not the south side of the road. In the end I was about 200 metres from the hash.
