The co-ordinates given lead you to a place near the cache, but you will have to answer the puzzles below to determine its exact location. There is so much to see in the ancient market town of Cowbridge, not least the beautiful Physic Garden at the rear of the Old Hall, which was originally laid out in the mid-18th century and lovingly restored by volunteers at the beginning of the 21st. Old Hall was the home of the Edmondes family for nearly two hundred years and is today a Community College with the Library and a children’s nursery school contained within the grounds. While in the area you might like to stop and have a look around the recently refurbished library, where you can even enjoy a cup of coffee while you sit and read the latest newspapers and magazines. This is a small cache containing a log book, pencil and swaps. How many glassless windows do you see in the Old Hall Wall? A When did Natasha Allan die?
