Geocache Description:

The Lincoln Bedroom is part of a guest suite on the second floor of the White House. Before the construction of the West Wing in 1902, the room was an office. President Abraham Lincoln used it as his personal office and Cabinet room.


The room has been furnished in a mix of Victorian styles including Renaissance Revival, Rococo Revival, and Aesthetic Movement. Some of the furniture was used by the Lincoln administration but was purchased during earlier administrations, including the sofa and three matching chairs, two slipper chairs, and four of Lincoln's cabinet chairs.

The central feature of the room is the Lincoln bed, a nearly eight-foot by six-foot rosewood bed with an enormous headboard which is believed to have been purchased by Mary Todd Lincoln during her extensive redecorating efforts. The bed was probably never used by President Lincoln, although several later presidents have used it. An ornamental crown-shaped canopy hood was recently reconstructed to replace the lost original.

You are looking for a small container on Aston Lane North, in the Whitehouse Industrial Estate, Runcorn. Unfortunately, Abraham Lincoln has never been here.
