Regrettably a stile has to crossed
This cache was set up as a thank you to Holly from Reno in Nevada who sent the Wiltshire geocachers a 'Red Jeep'TB. Yatton Keynell is a Cotswold village with the church of St Margaret of Antioch at it's centre. The church was founded in 1250 by Sir William Keynell, whose family were lords of the manor at the time hence the name of the village. He built the church as a thank you offering for his safe return from the Crusades.This explains the unusual dedication of the church to St Margaret of Antioch who was an Eastern saint who was swallowed by a dragon, but then escaped.
In order to find the cache two clues have to be sought and answered.
Clue 1: On the telegraph pole near to the suggested parking at N51 29.347 W002 11.525 there are four numerals preceded by the letter 'A'. List the four numerals as A, B, C, D. Clue 2:Then not far away is an ornamental gate made up of horse shoes at N51 29.348 W002 11.530. List how many horse shoes as E,F.

The cache consists of a small plastic lock tight box in a camo bag containing log book and small swaps. Be sure to remain on road/track and Public Footpaths at all times.
