Geocache Description:

The above co-ordinates are for one of the entrances to Hazelton Common accessed from opposite the Morrisons car park (does involve crossing a busy road) and are not the co-ordinates of the cache. Cache placed with the kind permission of Horndean Parish Council.

This is one for the Harry Potter - mad children (or even adults) in the family. We have read all the books in the series and loved them all, so we thought it would be a good idea to test your knowledge of them. The regular sized cache contains (initially at least) some suitably creepy HP - type swaps. The cache is at: N50 AB.CDE W 1 00.FGH AB = Reverse the last two digits of the year of Dumbledore’s duel with Gellert Grindelward C = Number of unforgiveable curses D = Take the number of the vault that Hagrid empties in the Philosophers Stone, add the digits together and minus 2. E = The first digit in the amount of prize money Harry receives for winning the triwizard tournament F = How many horcruxes did Harry destroy?. G = The second digit in the length of Harry’s wand in inches. H = The sum of the digits in the number of staircases at Hogwarts minus the number of extra birthday presents Aunt Petunia says she will buy for Dudley.
