Geocache Description:

Central Hall is a small woodland area in Wrockwardine Wood that we called "Cinder Hill" when we were growing up. It was a fantastic area for kids to play in and consists of one main lake and many small swamps along with a large field and various pathways connecting Wrockwardine Wood to Donnington.

The route of the Donnington Canal ran through the southern section of the area, and there was also a Tin Chapel (the "dissident Methodist" Central Hall) that sat on top of one of the many "hills", but was dismantled during the 1980s. The area is now commonly known as "The Snake" because of its winding paths which locals say reminded them of a snake. This is an unknown size cache with log book, pencil and 5 or 6 swaps plus a surprise for FTF!! To make this cache more interesting for you it is locked with a 3 digit combination lock. To access it you need to know about Telford. The answers are readily available on-line. For the 1st number of the lock (A) you will need to find out the year the only Motorway in Telford was completed (_ _ A _). For the 2nd number of the lock (B) what is the 1st number of the name of that Motorway? For the 3rd and final number of the lock (C) you need to find out the postcode of Telford Central Railway Station and add the two numbers together to make one number. You should now have a 3 number combination. When you reach the cache you will now be able to open the lock. When you have replaced the lock please mix up the combination for the next person. You might find that the 2nd digit (B) needs to be slightly offset. If you want to email me to double check the lock combination please feel free. or you can find my mobile number on fb west mid gc group paf document to text me for a quicker answer! Please can you try to not move the dials when the shackle is open, very hard with this lock i appreciate, but I might replace the lock if others have problems with it. After the fabulous comments we received following “Muxton Merriment no5, its not what it looks like”, I thought I would try and go one better with this cache!!! Hope you like it....please feel free to add photos to your log! Please could you ensure you rehide the cache as well as you found it, if not better-thanks again.
