Location
A suburban road not far from Leicester University

Plans
An attempt at a hash unlikely to be accessible, but irresistibly close to home.
Expedition
I knew the hash was 20m off the road and into the houses, but some of the big detached dwellings round this area have front gardens at least that long, so a walk up to a front door might possibly be enough to get me to the hash point. It was a trip of just a couple of km from my front door to theirs, but when I arrived my 'phone showed me as 16m from the hash point, and without knocking on the door and asking to go inside, which I am too cowardly to do, there was no chance of getting any closer.
Ah well, my second hash fail. Next time ...
