Geocache Description:

The co ordinates above are for a nearby road junction. The cache is a short walk along a green lane from some obvious parking on either side of the road the best parking is down the lane opposite the cache lane which just leaves a busy road to cross (sorry).There are turning places in both directions. This is a VERY BUSY road so be carefull. There are some great views near to the cache so take a camera.

The cache contains some more puzzles if you like them a FTF certificate and the usual log book and goodies. Simple solve the Sudoku's on this page in order. The answers to the first one will give you the numbers for next one and so on until you get to the last one. Of course they get harder as you go down the list..... The co ordinates will take you to a combination locked cache with another Sudoku for you to solve to get into the cache box proper. SO TAKE A PEN AND PAPER please replace the lock as you find it some people have'nt.
The combination reads left to right and top to bottom like a book

The rules for Sudoku are simple:

a) Place a number (1-9) in each blank cell.

b) Each row contains the numbers 1 to 9

c) Each column contains the numbers 1 to 9

d) Each 3x3 box (dark borders) contains the numbers 1 to 9

Obviously only one of each number can apear in each row, column or box.

The cache is hidden at
