Geocache Description:

This is a type of cache which will be unfamiliar to many cachers.
It combines elements of both Geocaching and Letterboxing (see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Letterboxing for more details of the latter).

In order to find the cache/letterbox, you will need to be able to use a simple compass and either read a map or use a GPS.
All bearings are to be taken as Degrees Magnetic.

The co-ordinates at the top of the page are not those of the cache, but for a suitable parking area.

From the parking area, navigate to a black and white sign at N 50 51.064 W 001 03.088 / SU 66869 06162.

From a spot 5 paces North of the sign, walk 250 paces on 280 to arrive at a lone tree.

From the tree, walk 210 paces on 64 to reach the cache.

From the cache site, the following objects can be seen….
Red object 116
Incinerator chimney 184
Spinnaker Tower 216
Red object 220

As well as the usual logbook and a few small swop items, the 1 litre plastic tub contains a small rubber stamp and ink pad.

THE RUBBER STAMP AND INK PAD ARE PART OF THE CACHE.
THEY ARE NOT SWOP ITEMS AND MUST NOT BE TAKEN AWAY FROM THE CACHE
