Geocache Description:

This cache is located in the Lincolnshire town of Long Sutton and continues the series
“Poppies on Parade” which was created by Mr Nibbler.

Like every village, town and city in the UK, Long Sutton has sent its sons and daughters to serve at sea, on land and in the air. For those who failed to return, almost every settlement in the UK has a dedicated monument at which the fallen are remembered every year.

You will be taken to Long Sutton war memorial which is situated in the Market Place, where trading has taken place since the early 13th century (warning: market day is on Friday!). Adjacent to the memorial is St Mary's Church which has the oldest, highest and best preserved lead-clad timber spire in Europe. The Church (and town) is also well known for its floral displays lasting throughout spring and summer.

Free parking is available at the nearby supermarket and the town has a
regular bus service.

The cache is NOT hidden on the memorial and the site is heavily overlooked by residents and passers-by, so stealth is required at all times. Please treat the area with respect and keep a watchful eye on any children who might accompany you.

You are looking for a nano cache with a just a tiny logbook inside so please remember to bring your own pen/pencil and just add the date and your initials, making sure that the cache is carefully replaced
where you found it (otherwise the hint is useless) so that it remains well out of view.

Finally, please spare a thought for those whose names are inscribed here:

When you go home tell them of us and say:
"For your tomorrow we gave our today"
