As part of the celebrations for a momentous occasion, the Makers invite you to an A-Z TOUR OF YORKSHIRE.
There are 27 caches, one for each letter of the alphabet plus a bonus cache, scattered throughout Yorkshire. As you travel to historic, panoramic, beautiful or just plain quirky locations, you will pass through some of the most spectacular areas of the county.
Enjoy your tour of Yorkshire, God’s Own County.
You can find the series in any order. Each cache contains a number you need to keep a note of as adding the first 26 sets of numbers together will give you the co-ordinates for the Bonus Cache, which is GC7JF9A. Heading to that listing page will give you information on the rest of the series.
To find the cache, you will first need to visit the Piece Hall in Halifax to gather some information which will give you the coordinates for the cache itself. The published coordinates will take you to the middle of this historic and unique location. PLEASE NOTE WHILST THE CACHE ITSELF IS AVAILABLE 24 HOURS A DAY, ACCESS TO THE PIECE HALL TO GATHER THE REQUIRED INFORMATION IS NOT.
The cache can be found at N53 43.ABC W001 51.DEF
From the published coordinates, head up the steps towards the West Gate. The information you seek can all be found in or around the top entrance to the Piece Hall:
Seek out the four plaques within the gate - Her majesty the Queen visited the Piece Hall on the A7 May 20B4.
Across the top of the Piece Hall are a line of benches - some of these have wooden "backrests" - C = the number of wooden backrests.
To reach the gate from the centre of the Piece Hall, you came up two flights of steps - how many steps in top flight plus 1 = D
Returning to the plaques - HRH The Prince of Wales visited the Piece Hall on E6 February 2018.
Staying with the plaques, The restored Piece Hall was opened on the 3rd July 197F
This cache has been placed for the 10th Anniversary UK Mega Event - Yorkshire 2018
