This cache started life on GC, then when they took it upon themselves to archive it I posted it on Terracaching (see here) I've now decided to move it one last time onto Opencaching. Leominster (pronounced 'Lemster') dates back to the 7th Century. Some say that Leominster is named after Earl Leofric, the husband of Lady Godiva who famously rode naked through the streets of Coventry on horseback. But this probably isn't true. The town possesses some fine examples of architecture throughout the ages. The Priory Church, founded in 663, was a very important religious centre in pre-Norman conquest times, and was formerly a monastery. Grange Court, built in 1633 by the King's carpenter John Abel, was formerly sited at The Buttercross, on the junction of High Street and Broad Street. It served as the town hall with an open-air market beneath. It was moved to its current site in The Grange in 1856. The lower floor was enclosed, and today Grange Court houses local authority offices. Throughout the town there is a wide variety of architectural styles from the medieval overhangs in Drapers Lane and School Lane, to the Georgian splendour of Broad Street. The town centre has recently become semi-pedetrianised, recreating the bustling atmosphere of a market town. A market is still held each Friday in Corn Square.

It blends in very well with its immediate surroundings (hint) and should stay dry (another hint). I can almost guarantee no satellite reception at the location but the coordinates should be reasonably accurate as I averaged readings from each of the three access points (yet another hint). It contains a magnet so be sure it "sticks" when you replace it. Despite it being right in the middle of the muggle rich centre of the town, not many people come down here (last hint!) There is wheelchair access as long as it's not too wide (oh all right, definitely the last hint!) but you might need help to reach the cache.
