Geocache Description:


This is the War Memorial.

 

You will need to go to the Posted Coords that will take you to the War Memorial, where you can collect the information required. 

You will need to use the Grid below.

You will need to find the correct name and put each letter into the Grid which will give each letter a number. You will then need to add each number together which will give you a two digit answer. When you have your two digit answer, you will then need to add both digits together and this will give you numbers for the sums to find the Final Cache.

For example, if the name was Quick - Q=8  U=3  I=9  C=3  K=2    All numbers added together = 25   2+5  therefore A=7

Here are the Questions.

Starting with the 1939 - 1945 War.

Question #A you will need John Fouracres roll in the forces.

Question #B you will need to find the surname a Lieut. Sydney Micheal.

Question #C you will to find the first name of a man that was in the R.A.F. with the surname of Whitcombe

Moving on to the 1914 - 1918 War.

Question #D you will need to find the Regiment of a C.L. Purkess

Question#E you will need find the first name on the road sign near the Memorial where the second name is Hill. 

 

 

 

Once you have collected your info and used the Grid as shown above ect. you will need to do some simple sums that will help you gather the correct coords to find the Final Cache.

Final cache can be found at: N 50 55.(E-C)(E-D)(E)  W 003 16.(E)(B+D)(A-B)    

The cache is fair distance from the Memorail, you can walk it but it would probably be best if you drive to the cache. 

Hope you find the cache!
