Geocache Description:


 

Puzzles can be divided very clearly into one of two categories. There are those you can solve - which can be great fun and fill a few moments with amusement, and those you cant solve - which are stupid and you didn’t want to solve them anyway.

This puzzle is a little bit different to the previous ones in this series - you wont be able to work out the final cache location before you set out. You will need to find the essential elements of the location during you quest,

The normal rules apply - the coordinates at the top of the page are not where you will find the cache and in this case don’t point to a good parking place either.

The first stage in finding this cache is to identify the location mentioned in the title.

If you were to approach this point from the West you would see two numbers AB. If however your approach was from the East you would see the numbers CD.

You now need to take the Latitude of the place in the title and add . (CCC x B) + (ADC)

And at the same time take A.B(C + C)D from the Longitude.

Now go to the co-ordinates you end up with.

 

At this point if you look around you should find an old box - open the box - inside is written a number EFGHIJKLMNO

To grab the prize you must now go to N NE (N-F)E IBH W EEF EM GIM where you will find a small tin about 7 cm dia by 4.5 cm deep.

Easy isn’t it!

Special thanks go to the National Trust for kindly granting permission to place this cache on their land.
