This cache is temporarily unavailable.

Ngaambul: Hi Angusjthebull,

The cache appears to be in need of owner intervention, or it may not but in the absence of the cache owner performing maintenance and/or disabling the cache to check it out, I'm temporarily disabling it, to give the owner an opportunity to check on the cache, and take whatever action is necessary. Please respond to this situation in a timely manner (i.e., within 4 weeks) to prevent the cache from being archived for non-responsiveness.

If you require more time please be sure to post a note (not an email) explaining the situation and how much more time you require. For ongoing issues please ensure you visit the listing and post a new note every 4 weeks to keep everyone up to date, if you do not then you cache may be archived without further note from a reviewer. Caches archived due to lack of maintenance are no longer unarchived and you will need to submit a replacement as a new cache.

Ngaambul - Matt

Geocache Description:

You’ll find this cache in Carlson Park. Carlson Park is named after Erik Carlson, a local resident who worked on improving the living environment of Willoughby City. Carlson park is an example of his efforts, the land acquired in 1989 to mitigate local flooding and to develop as public open space. This park is a small one with few amenities but is a nice quiet spot to have a rest – and is nice and shady on a hot summer day.

Across High St from the park is Stan St. Take a short walk along Stan St to Ann St and you’ll find a Willoughby Heritage plaque at the site of the Rosewall Tannery. James Forsyth established the Rosewall Tannery in 1869 on part of the 278 acres he owned in Willoughby. He became Mayor of Willoughby in 1875, remaining an Alderman until 1881 when he retired passing the business on to his sons.

In 1906 Broomham Bros (who had worked for James Forsyth) bought the tannery and renamed it Enterprise Tannery. In 1957 the tannery became the Willoughby Bus Depot – which it remains to this day.
