A pleasant stroll along the coast, with some mild diversions. LATEST UPDATE: This is no longer "On the street where i live". I have moved to London, so no cup of tea for you

This cache is much more compact than "On the street where i live", so no need to drive between the clues this time.

1 - At co-ords above, you will find a putt putt course.
On the blue course, how many holes (real and blocked) are in the top section of hole 15? = A

2 - S 33°54.263
E 018°23.897

This Maze claims to be the third largest in the world. Considering I know 2 larger mazes in the Cape area, Cape Town must have the 3 largest mazes in the world - unless there is some dodgy advertising going on here.
This maze is "for the delight of ladies and gentlemen".
How many ladies and gentlemen in total can be seen on the poster? = B

3 - S 33°54.149
E 018°23.941

This blue train has been going for decades. Those who have done Vespax's "Cape Affair" might recognise this train from that. While placing this cache, I had a ride on the train. Most entertaining, and very rough!
On the Entrance sign, is a sponsor in the corner (____ signs)
C = number of letters in the word before SIGNS

4 - S 33°54.100
E 018°23.992

What year was this fine building established? = 18D4

Final cache is hidden at :

S 33° 54.(D+1)(B-1)0
E 018° 23.(A+4)(C+2)2

Came back at night to avoid muggles and looked around for ages (as well as disassembling half of the area) to no avail.
