Geocache Description:

A modern code which will lead you to a lovely spot with great views. Hope you get the message.

The co-ordinates above are not where the cache is. They are, however, a good spot to park and enjoy a wander near the hidden box.

To find the real co-ordinates you need the numbers below:

667 840 343 890 368 703 347 337 073 836

833 607 646 807 383 606 630 937 610

937 808 960 334 733 703 678 907 383

607 646 806 630 368 708 473 310

I can confirm or deny any co-ordinates if you wish to check them, however, the right ones shouldn't put you miles from the parking spot. I'm also happy to provide a hint if you're stuck with the puzzle.

Helsington church is usually open during the day and the view over the Lyth Valley to the hills and the estuary is inspiring. Once you have found the cache there are plenty of walk options and a couple of other caches could be linked up.

There is a good pub in Brigsteer at the bottom of the hill and in Levens to the south. Sizergh Castle is a short distance away.

The cache is under a low bush.
