spent 10 minutes looking for it before getting the spade out, first prod and there it was not even buried just in a bit of long grass.

I live within a mile, and I've a cache (RAF West Kirby - GCZ7D3) just across the road, yet I'd never seen this before.

Using the OS drawing for this rivet I found it easily even in amongst the long grass. The first kick into the undergrowth I made I hit the concrete rivet painted yellow around the outskirts. If only all bolts and rivets were this easy. Then again it would not be so much fun that way.
