Geocache Description:

A. The memorial has a stepped base set in the centre of a shaped garden. How many steps are there?

B. On top of the steps, is a large granite chunk of stone, on which the tall Latin Cross sits. How many sloped sides does the granite piece of stone have?

C. What is the name of the shape that forms the stepped base and the surrounding garden? Count the number of letters.

D. E, There is one large brass plaque and one small one. How many surnames appear on them both?

F. How many PTE's have a surname starting with B?
