The church
The Salvation Army, founded by William Booth in 1865, was formed for social work in the community. It has a military-based organisation and is well known for its brass bands. The Woodhouse corps opened in 1885 as an outpost for the Sheffield Citadel. They moved to the current premises in 1926.
The cache
The coordinates are to the church, not the location of the cache. The cache is a micro container close to the church, but not on church grounds. High stealth is required as it's a high muggle area. To find the coordinates, answer the questions below. The information can be found on the church's notice board.
- A = number of windows in the notice board
- B = number of total words in second panel
- C = colour of notice board (red = 1, yellow = 2, green = 3, blue = 4)
N 53 21.C(A + B)(A + B) W 001 22.C(B - A - A)(A + C)
This cache is part of a series of Woodhouse church micros including a bonus:
- Now Church
- Woodhouse Salvation Army
- Trinity Methodist Church
- St James Church
- Woodhouse Churches Bonus
The cache will contain a letter and number which is needed for the Woodhouse Churches Bonus cache.
Parking
Parking is available on the main road, however it may be easier and safer to park on a side road. A large car park is a short walk away (see waypoint), which is especially useful to do the Woodhouse church micro series.
