Geocache Description:


The co-ordinates above are for an off-road parking area on Malvern Link Common not the actual cache. This cache is one of 4 caches set on Malvern Link Common. The Common forms part of an AONB which is maintained by the Malvern Hills Conservators. See (visit link)

Over the years, there has been a steep decline in British manufacturing. However, in Malvern a manufacturer of prestigious motor cars has just celebrated its Centenary Year. The Morgan Motor Company exports over 2/3rds of its production and all cars are hand-built. A factory tour is 90 minutes well spent. See (visit link) Co-ordinates for the cache can be obtained by solving the following simple puzzle:

H F S Morgan purchased a plot of land for the factory now known as the 'Works' in 191A.

HFS Morgan’s first car was a single-seat three-wheeled runabout - the 'prototype' - which he made for his personal use in 190B.

The founder of the Morgan Car Company was born in 1CC1.

The Morgan Aero Super Sport was introduced into the US market in 200D.

The Morgan +E was first introduced in 1950.

Morgan produced F40 cars in 2007.
