This is straightforward multi-cache set around some of the Secret Base at Corsham
NOTE this has not be edited to make it more straightforward.
Parking can be quite difficult at the start point. There is plenty of parking within a few hundred yards. At the beginning look for a yellow sign with 5 words. Count the number of letters in each word. This will give you ABCDE.
Next point is at
N 51.2C.E D C W 002.12.AC0
When you get here you will be looking straight into Basil Hill Barracks, look for a yellow sign and look for a telephone number. Let the number be FGHIJ KLMNOP
Next point is N51.25.M,M/2,M W02.12.M,M/2,M
This takes you past a man made lake. This lake was blamed for the flooding of the Box tunnel (which is right beneath you). It was drained but this was not the cause of the flooding. Carry on until you reach the gate. At this point you might like try Pockridge Predictive set by Hamfist. Count the number of horizontal bars on the pedestrian gate. Let the answer = Q. Now head for
N51.25.(D+E-Q),D,(C-D+Q) W02.12.(Q+E/2),E*2,6
You will soon pass an air vent on your left and after 40 metres you bear right and pass over the Corsham entrance to the Box tunnel. If you have gone past the metal railings you have gone too far. Head up the hill on the footpath. (If it very wet you can retrace your footsteps and stay on the lane). This one is a bit more tricky and envolves some lateral thought but is ok if you look for the right signs near the sign for the site next to Mayfair in Monopoly. Read the phone number and note the 2nd, 5th , 6th 8th and 9th numbers. Please note it is not on the fire hydrant sign that has just been added.
The final leg takes you to
N51.25. 6th number 5th number (8th number + 9th number) W 02.12. C 2nd number A
