Geocache Description:

A short offset cache-n-dash to get you to visit my village. Won't take 10 minutes.

The Jarrow March (or Jarrow Crusade, from the phrase on banners carried by the marchers), was an October 1936 protest march against unemployment and extreme poverty suffered in North East England at that time. The marchers travelled from the town of Jarrow to the Palace of Westminster in London, a distance of almost 300 miles, to lobby Parliament.



The above coords are for suitable parking, I know it's a junction but everyone parks there to go in the shop.

Now walk towards the Church and continue in the direction of the horse and cart (Northampton), you'll know when to stop.

Once there, you'll need to note down the 5 initials (there at the bottom).

Convert the letters to numbers A=1, B=2 etc...

And then letter the numbers V,W,X,Y & Z.

Still with me ? :-)

Final coords are N52 10.[(2*y*z)-x+y] W00 39.[(x+v)(w+z)-x]

A very short walk to find a peanut pot.
