Geocache Description:

This cache starts in the village of St Columb Minor, on the outskirts of Newquay. Car parking can be found at N 50 25.316 W 005 02.594, very close to the first location.

The co-ordinates given are for the church tower, which at 115ft, is the second highest in Cornwall.

From here you need to locate a grave with a Cornish celtic cross (there are several to choose from, hope you get lucky!) and solve the following clues:

William Hellyar’s age when he died = AB

The date he died = CD/04/19EF

The coordinates for the cache are:

N 50 2A B07
W 005 02 (CD + EF)4

Once you locate the cache it is worth continuing a bit further in a north-east direction in order to appreciate the view.
