Geocache Description:

The coordinates for this cache are not for the physical location of it. They are for the church where the remainder of the clues can be found. This cache can not be completed until you have found each of the others in the series and obtained the missing numbers from their log books.

St Mary’s is a grade 1 listed Church with a thatch roof, the nave and chancel dating back to the 13th Century. There is a memorial at the front of the church to a WW2 B17 bomber crew nicknamed the "Bloody Hundreds" whose plane caught fire just before reaching the East coast on May 7th 1944 en route for a raid on Berlin. Five of the crew managed to escape through a gun turret, but the remaining five, including both pilots, died in the nearby crash.

To obtain the remainder of the coordinates you must aim higher than the mark, then work from left to right.

P = 10th
Q = 8th
R = 11th
S = 1st - 3rd + 9th

The cache can then be found at:

N52.PQ.ABC

E001.RS.DEF

The churches making up this series are:
North Cove
Barnby
Gisleham
Oulton
Somerleyton
Herringfleet

If anybody 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.
