Terrain Difficulty: Easy (flat, 50 meters RT)
Recommended Ink: brown
Pall-mall was a game played in a long alley with an iron hoop at the end during the 16th and 17th centuries. It was a precursor to croquet and the object was to strike a ball with a heavy wooden mallet, down the alley and through the hoop with the fewest hits possible. The name comes from the Italian pallamaglio, which literally means "ball mallet", and was introduced from France into Scotland and later to England. The name refers not only to the game, but also to the mallet used and the alley in which it was played. The street in London named Pall Mall is derived from the game played there and you can find this box nearby at the edge of Waterloo Gardens.
Directions:
Go to Waterloo Gardens on Waterloo Pl between Pall Mall and Carlton House Terrace.
Clues:
Find the statue of John Franklin just behind the fence. Reach through fence on left side of statue for box next to concrete base under a rock.
