The Bishop Hannington Church is a memorial to the Bishop
Hannington.
Bishop James Hannington was made the Bishop of Eastern
Equatorial Africa in 1884, after making several attempted journeys
there. These attempts were all halted by illness and fever. In 1885
he made another journey there, and finally reached the shores of
Kenya. Once there, he focused on opening a new route into Uganda,
as he had heard that several missionaries from Great Britain had
been killed there before. He, along with five other missionaries,
made it to the shores of Lake Victoria, in late October of that
year. However, him and the rest of his team were captured and
imprisoned by King Mwanga II of Buganda and after 8 days of
captivity, they were killed, becoming the first of the Martyrs of
Uganda.
This is a simple multiple stage cache. The coordinates listed
lead you to a location around the Holmes Avenue side of the church.
There is some stuff written on signs and the like around the
church. You will have to use this, and the clues below, to gain the
coordinates. for the cache. The cache is a 35mm film canister. I
also advise not attempting to find this cache between 1500 and 1530
hours, as children from the nearby school will be making their way
home past the church at this point.
The coordinates:
N50" 50.ABC W000"11.DEF
Apologies of poor wording and obscure clues on some of these
letters, I'm having quite a lot of trouble thinking of alternative
wording, quite possibly due to incompetence.
A: The number of words in the second line on the Neville Avenue
sign, including the heading, plus 1.
B: The number of letters in the fourth word on the third line of
the Neville Avenue sign, this time not including the heading or
anything to do with time.
C: The number of letters in the singular form of the ninth word of
the Holmes Avenue sign (the one you can see in the picture above),
not including any words containing numbers or the letter A, but
including the heading.
D: The number of letters in the second word on the Neville Avenue
sign beggining with T and not including words joined with a
hyphen.
E: The number of days a week it is open (according to the Neville
Avenue sign).
F: The number of characters (not including punctuation or spaces)
in the sentence above the door of the Holmes Avenue entrance, minus
1 and divided by 12.
I hope you enjoy this cache!
If any body would like to expand to this
series please do, I would just ask that you could let
SADEXPLORATION know first so he can keep track of the Church
numbers and names to avoid duplication.
