Geocache Description:

A walk of just under half a mile from castle to cache. First descending a possibly muddy path, then a short ascent on a quiet lane.

The Three Castles Walk is an 18 mile circular walk linking the Norman Castles of Skenfrith, Grosmont and Whitecastle. This Cache is one of three each with its start point at each of the castles and located along the Three Castles Walk footpath. The walk can be completed in one day and if undertaken whilst Geocaching then it is advisable to do the walk in an anti-clockwise direction to avoid backtracking from virtual locations. The footpath is well signposted in either direction. A leaflet may be obtained from local tourist information centres and the route is marked on the Ordinance Survey maps Explorer 189, Outdoor Leisure 13 and Explorer OL14.

There is roadside parking quite close to the castle.

The virtual location is at the co-ordinates above where you must answer the following question.
The Lancasters built additions between ABCD and EFGH

The main cache is located at N 51 5(B+E).(B+F)BC W002 5E.(B+G)C(G-B)
