Ha! My first ever First To Find. I got the email that a new cache had been activated close by so rushed to the car after work and with the help from Jenny managed to find this cache moments before another geocacher pulled up!

A seemily boring spot, but one that actually has some interesting history behind it (at least interesting if you are a cricket fan) .

"On August 31, 1968 Sir Garfield Sobers's stunned the cricket world whilst playing for Nottinghamshire against Glamorgan at the St Helen's Ground by hitting six sixes in an over. Sobers's tally of 36 runs in an over broke the 57-year-old record of 34 runs held by Ted Alletson. The last ball was hit out of the ground coming to rest here."
