Since my whole family are now geocachers I decided to hide my dad’s birthday present at the end of a multicache around the village I grew up. Now that my Dad has safely retrieved his present, and I know all the clues work, I thought I would publish it as a genuine multicache.
The cache is a small lock and lock box suitable for small swaps and trackables. This cache should take around 30mins and the walk is less than 1km. It is suitable for children but please be careful crossing the road.
Follow clues one to five to obtain the numbers you will need to find the cache. The starting coordinates lead you to the first clue and also to an area with plenty of on street parking.
=======================================
CLUE ONE
The starting coordinates lead you to the first clue.
Look for a BS code on a small Brickhouse manhole cover.
A = The sum of the first and last numbers
B = The third number
=======================================
CLUE TWO
The coordinates of clue two are:
N 51° 29.268 W 002° 38.867
Look at the stone.
C = The number of letters on the top line
=======================================
CLUE THREE
The coordinates of clue three are:
N 51° 29.319 W 002° 38.862
Look at the windows up high and the letters down low.
D = The number of circular windows multiplied by 3.
E = The number of letters in the brick between S*S and KWP multiplied by 3.
=======================================
CLUE FOUR
The coordinates of clue four are:
N 51° 29.306 W 002° 38.945
Look for a postbox number which starts BS.
F = the first number following the BS.
G = The second number
H= the sum of numbers 4 and 5.
=======================================
CLUE FIVE
The coordinates of clue five are:
N 51° 29.286 W 002° 38.990
Look at the raised letters on the green container.
I = How many raised letters are there altogether?
J = Subtract the number of raised letters on the top line from the bottom line.
=======================================
THE CACHE
The coordinates of your final destination are:
N 51° JA.GDE W 002° BC.FHI
There are two extra clues in the hint section but once you have the right coordinates it shouldn't be too difficult to find the cache.
