Geocache Description:

Rus-in-Urbe Cottage is the heritage listed dwelling located on the grounds of the Riverside Corporate Park in North Ryde. It is now dwarfed by the modern commercial office building immediately adjacent but fortunately part of the cottage has been preserved for future generations.

The cottage was built around 1906 and was later used by the CSIRO. It is part of the 2 Richardson Place property and is privately owned.

Rus in urbe is Latin for an illusion of countryside created by a building or garden within a city.

Please note that you do not need to enter the private property to find the cache. The cache can be accessed from the Riverside walking track on the southern side of the chain link fence.

Other information: Please replace cache exactly as it was found to prevent it from being muggled/vandalised. BYO pen.
