Geocache Description:

NOW A MULTI STAGE CACHE. ONE QUESTION TO ANSWER.
Micro cache suitable for cache and dash. Bring a pencil/pen and something like a small flat blade for leverage.

This cache is located near the ruins of Old St James church, Dover.

The church was severely damaged by enemy shell fire during World War 2. It was hit several times by shells, the tower eventually collapsing. In 1948 it was decided to leave it as a ruin to commemorate the people of Dover who, like the church, suffered much during the war.

This cache is a micro, suitable for a cache and dash. Sorry - no space for trade items, and please do not be tempted to leave any trades near the cache. This is Dover. If its not locked and secured it WILL disappear.

Find the following information from the Church Information Board:

What year did the church cease being a court for the Baron
Year = ABCD

What year was it decided to leave the ruins as they are?
Year = EFGH

The cache coordinates are:

N51 (H-E).CG(H-E) E001 EF.(A-D)C(B-H)

Please take care, its a busy area in the day and this site has been muggled a few times now. Push and twist the cache top as you would a medicine bottle (child proof).
