Geocache Description:

A circuit of 20 caches, covering approximately 6 miles that starts in the National Trust village of Lacock, climbs up Bowden hill, and descends back down Naish hill before returning to the village.

There is a bit of a climb about one third of the way round, but it soon levels out before descending again. There are some stunning views as you approach the summit of the climb, and also as you make your way back to your starting position.
You will cover a variety of ground, and it does cross several stiles and gets muddy in the winter, so is not suitable for wheelchairs or buggies. You will need to provide your own pen or pencil, and tweezers may be required on some of the caches.
Ample parking is available in the National Trust car park, although this does attract a fee. Alternative parking can be found at most of the public houses in the village, although you may have to find the cost of a pint or two.
If you haven’t visited them previously, there are a couple of caches already in the village, and a couple on the outward leg also. All are well worth a visit.Enjoy.

This is a simple offset multi designed to take you out of the village. Proceed to the co-ordinates where you will find a prohibitive Parish Council sign. To determine the coordinates for the cache, use only the lower, blue coloured portion of the sign with 4 main lines of text. Please ignore the "management" section at the top of the blue sign, and the "Thank you" at the bottom.

You will be looking for 6 figures which will be labelled A,B,C,D,E,F.
A= The number of words in the second line.
B= The number of letter “P’s” in the first line.
C=The number of letter “O’s” in the second line minus the number of letter “O’s” in the third line
D= The number of letters in the first word of the first line.
E = The number of words in the second line.
F = The number of words in the first and fourth lines.

The cache can be found at N51 24 ABC W002 06 DEF.
