Geocache Description:

 

 



The cache is NOT located at the co-ordinates above.

The idea is to locate a cache by projecting from a point some distance away. Having an interest in maps and navigation etc. might be an advantage.
This cache is inspired by the Mercator Projection Series (hope you don't mind Rob)

You are looking for a small camo'd cliplock.

You will need to visit each of the three village greens and gather the necessary information.

The cache is located on the perimeter of the triangle made by straight lines joining each of the village signs.

Colne Engaine: Tree planted to celebrate 189A-199A
Earls Colne: In memory of PC Jeff Perry. d. 8th May 198B
White Colne: Crackbones was built in the Cth century

The cache is located on a bearing of XXX from one of the village signs,
where XXX = A x (B + C)


Each Colne has its own cache, another gillywig cache as well as a Church micro nearby.

CE: CM 722 and 222397
EC: CM 721 and Earls Colne Heritage Museum.
