Geocache Description:


This is the second in a series concerning Surrey schools and their famous pupils. The coordinates given are not for the cache, but for another school which has no connection with what follows!

You are looking for a school (X), from where this musician moved on to another (which again has no connection with this cache) where he co-founded what became a highly popular band. In later years he developed a successful solo career and became involved in human rights activities.

When you have found the school X, then on opposite sides of the road in the centre of the village is a church and another school (Y).

What is the date high up on the front of school Y (ABCD) ?

On how many sides of the church tower is there a clock face (E) ?

At the foot of a big tree close to the south western corner of the church tower is a simple memorial stone to "Howard". How old was he when he died (FG)?

The cache is at
N 51 1(C+F+G).(B-1)G(B-E)
W 000 (B-C)(C-F).(A+B)CB

Please don't leave any spoilers in the log. Please feel free to continue the series with a cache of your own.
