    Found GC29M68 Virgin Mary's Guard

    This checkin to GC29M68 Virgin Mary's Guard reflects a geocaching.com log entry. See more of Dan's cache logs. Found after a brief hunt. The hint had me searching on the wrong side of the hedge - this one is definitely best appoached from the car park, not the road, as others have observed. Greetings from â€Ļ

  • Review of Gosford Hill [bus stop]

    This review of Gosford Hill originally appeared on Google Maps. See more reviews by Dan. Gosford Hill, Kidlington OX5 1EB, United Kingdom. Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ No shelter or seating, but this is principally a "dropping-off" point for passengers coming from Oxford and so that's fine. Bus stop is in layby to mitigate disruption to other traffic.

    This review of Gosford Hill originally appeared on Google Maps. See more reviews by Dan. Gosford Hill, Kidlington OX5 2NU, United Kingdom. Rating: ⭐⭐⭐ Shelter, but no seating. No digital display board, and it could really benefit from one. Bus stopping area is a layby in order to reduce impact on traffic. Rubbish bin, but â€Ļ
