Geocache Description:

This is the fourth in a series of ten multi-caches based on the London Monopoly board. Further caches in this series will be posted over the coming months.


Each of the ten multi-caches consists of one or more clues at each of the Monopoly locations, leading to a physical cache, hidden nearby.

Each of the ten physical caches will contain a souvenir card for you to take. Once you have collected all ten, you will have the location of an eleventh, final, physical cache, which will contain thousands of pounds of (Monopoly) money.

In Monopoly, the values of the properties increase as you work your way around the board; in our cache series, the clues will become harder as you work your way through them. So the Old Kent Road should be very easy, but by the time you reach Mayfair, they will be very hard.

Use your answers from Income Tax, Electric Company, Water Works and Super Tax to decode the coordinates of this cache.

Please note that this area is only accessible before sunset.

Don’t forget to take one of the special CacheCards (please let us know if there aren’t many left). You’ll need all ten CacheCards to find the final cache. Don’t worry if they are all gone, the important information is also on the inside of the box lid.

Please remember, this is a SMALL cache (10 x 7 x 4 cm), so only bring small items to swap.

To begin with, this cache contains a logbook, pencils, the CacheCards, a geocaching key ring, a spherical dice and the fourth in a series of Monopoly travel bugs.
