Geocache Description:

The 60th in a series of caches where a red telephone box is in close proximity to a post box. The only rule is that they have to be able to be photographed together, and the phone boxes have to be red.p>


This 35mm film can in a specimen pot is within 2 miles. Take extra care when crossing the A31 on foot. The phone number in the red box is ABCDE-FGHIJK (lift the handset). The post box is number SOLM NPQ (the SO is literal).

The cache is at N 51 (J).(F-G)(M+P)(K), W 1 (Q).(H-E)(I)(D+L+N).

The phone box door seems to be stuck shut - preventing discovery of the phone number. An alternative formula involves the phone number on the yellow box behind the phone box (1.5m up on its front): ARSTU-VWXYZ@. The post box is number SOLM NPQ (the SO is literal).

The cache is at N 51 (V+W).(T-U)(Y)(Z+@), W 1 (S+U).(W-Z)(R+T)(X+R).


The Fine Pair series was originally started by wizardsmum.

If anybody would like to place 'A Fine Pair' of their own please do, I would just ask that you let mattd2k at geocachingafinepair@gmail.com know first so he can keep track of the numbers and names to avoid duplication.
He also keeps a public Bookmark List of this series so once your cache is published please contact him via his profile page to have yours added.


Good hunting. You may also be interested in my other caches.
