This geocache is a multi-cache in the villages of Robin Hood's Bay and Fylingthorpe. Just a few minutes' walk up the hill from the dock.
There is a little searching for clues involved in the biggest man-made landmark - the beautfiul, and rightly famous Victorian Church.
Start at the coordinates above. This is the entrance to St Stephen's Church. The building should be open from around 10am - 4.30pm every day, though there are services on Sunday and Wednesday mornings. Important: in the unlikely event of the building being locked, please check the wooden display board, in the outdoor porch, to the right of the main doors - there are details of the keyholder there: Mr & Mrs Popple.
Enter the Church through the porch doors. While you are in there, soak up the atmosphere, and look at the interesting features.
Stand in the middle of the church, and answer these 5 quick questions (don't worry about the numbers next to them for now):
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1) Which large object stands at the back of the church, in front of the biggest window?
a. table: 23 b. organ: 26 c. chair: 24
2) How many wooden pews (benches) are there on the right hand side of the main body?
a. 2 pews: 173 b. 15 pews: 179 c. 70 pews: 187
3) Which golden bird is at the front of the front right hand side of the main body?
a. eagle: 000 b. pigeon: 001 c. sparrow: 002
4) What has a large wooden cross standing on it?
a. radiator: 29 b. window: 37 c. altar: 32
5) How many windows are there on the top right hand side, near the roof?
a. 7 windows: 146 b. 14 windows: 132 c. 19 windows: 167
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Once you have found the answers, put the coordinates together, by using the numbers that belong to the answer:
N 54 (answer from 1: _ _ ) (answer from 2: _ _ _ )
W (answer from 3: _ _ _ ) (answer from 4: _ _ ) (answer from 5: _ _ _ )
and put your answer into your GPS in this format:
N _ _ _ _ . _ _ _
W _ _ _ _ _ . _ _ _
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Walk to the cache sight once you have calculated the coordinates. The cache is not far away, and there are many ways to approach it. Be careful of muggles seeing!
