18/3/2006: NB:
New Position for final cache!
A tranquil and beautiful place that's well worth a visit -
especially if you're from the US of A, or have military
connections. I passed it every day for nearly 3 years before I
finally went in and had a look. There's not another like it in the
UK - and there can be few places that are so immaculately well kept
- it's an impressive monument!
The coords are for the car-park - NB: The opening hours are
from 0900-1700 (9am -5pm) daily. - Once inside, take a short
walk easterly beside the reflecting pool and find Hyman Nathans
place (he's a star even if he is in the back row) -
he's also a long way from New York....
You'll need his four-digit year - ABCD - to decode the coords of
the actual cache which is not far away on a public footpath -
'hidden' in plain view.... (The name of the cache also has more
than one meaning!)

Final Coodrdinates: N52 (B+C).A(C-A)(B-A) E0

No 'bushwacking' required and you should have no trouble with
satelite coverage - the cache is a small box, containing a
logsheet, and with little room for anything else - please take a
pen or pencil with you!
