ALL’S WELL ON WEDNESDAY Mystery Cache

This cache has been archived.

signyred: No one watching this one and no longer one of my favourite placements now that I had to move it from near the well to near a hippy tree shrine so, even though it is over 10 years old, I'm going to archive it due to a request from someone who wants to place a new hand-made cache near the church. The Shirley-based group is still walking every Wednesday and visit this spot every 2 or 3 years. However, the cache hasn't attracted any new enquirers [:D]

Geocache Description:

A BIG THANK YOU TO Pete / Pedro UK FOR PERFORMING SOME MUCH NEEDED MAINTENANCE ON THIS CACHE AND ALSO TO TheWoolleyWonderers AND Elfre FOR PUTTING A NEW LOG SHEET IN PLACE IN APRIL 2015 & MAY 2018 RESPECTIVELY.

The second in a series of caches relating to the Wednesday Walking Club which is based in Shirley.

The group was started in 1981 by John Whybrow, a famous Midlands photographer, to help the unemployed by giving them some interesting mid week exercise and, by improving their confidence, helping them back into work. Now there are hardly any out-of-work members, yet none are working because the membership is currently 100% retired (but not grumpy old men and women!)
Guest walkers are always welcome to join us for a walk so if you know you’re going to be free on a Wednesday please e mail me for details of where to meet and what to bring.

The listing co-ordinates would take you to a stile that was broken when we did a walk in the area on 6th June.

Later on we passed a site that seemed a great place for a cache as there was a bit of history associated with the place and some nice views nearby. You might have a good idea where this is from the cache title and there are now a couple of more recent caches nearby.

If you want to find the co-ordinates for this one, however, you’ll have to work out the location from the questions below, which all relate to rambling and walking in the UK.

Number of peaks (called Nuttalls) over 2000 feet in England ? = A B 1

Midland ramblers often keep meeting sections of the Monarch’s Way footpath. According to the Ramblers’ Association this is 9 t 4 km long. C = half middle figure t

The Kinder Trespass took place on w x April 19 y z according to most trusted internet websites? D = (x + y + z) E= (w + y)

A ‘Marilyn’ is a hill that has a drop of at least 1 X F metres on all sides. J = X+1

How many stones on Clent at SP 935 803? = G

The trig point on Walton Hill is 1 0 p q feet above sea level according to "The Relative Hills of Britain" H= p + q - 1

The highest point in Warwickshire is south of Stratford on Avon at 2 m n metres K = m+n

The cache is at N 52° AB.CDE W 002° FG.HJK

1st April 2009:- With 2 cache containers washed away it was time to change the hide slightly and the cache is now a micro that unfortunately will not take trackables. You might find it with the "Successful" geochecker co-ordinates if you use the hint but if you want better gps accuracy add 2 to the North and 9 to the West and this should put you right next to the cache on a path.

Since placing the area has become quite a hippy shrine with lots of ribbons, amulets and the like hanging in trees - these have nothing to do with the cache!!
