Geocache Description:

Number 33 in a series of caches where a red telephone box is in close proximity to a post box.

The only rules are that they have to be able to be photographed together, be not more than 100’ apart and the phone boxes have to be red.

This offset cache (my first hide) replaces an archived one which I spotted just after I started geocaching - but before I could look for it! 


THE FOLLOWING IS UPDATED AS AT 24/10/2017 - New final location, with easier access. The previous cache went missing in August 2017 from a very nettly place where no sane geocacher would go. So some did anyway....!

The cache is a small box covered in camo tape, containing log book, pencil and with a little room for small swaps and trackables.  It is not at the given co-ordinates - use the clues from the phone box and post box to solve the puzzle below, and then visit the final location a short walk away. 

At the phone box:  Find the phone number for this phone. 01243 ABCDEF At the post box: Find the Post Box No. PO22 GH

The final location is at

N50 47.(E+G) (B-C) (F-C)

W000 36.A H (H-C)

If you spot the hint item please let me know in your log, thanks! Please replace the lid nice and tight and put the cache back securely where you found it. Thanks!
