Geocache Description:

The co-ordinates given for this cache are not the final cache location. They are for where you can park. You will only be able to locate this cache if you have collected all of the clues from the other 10 caches in the Tamworth Village Church series.

CHURCH DESCRIPTION
So, how did this Priory come to be here? It is said that William Burdett, a valiant and devout man, joined a crusade to the Holy Land; that his steward, in his absence, in vain solicited his lady, whereupon on his master's return he accused her of being unfaithful; that the knight believing the slander stabbed her; and that afterwards, discovering the truth, he founded this priory as an act of expiation. It is also said that in his days, when the priory church of Alvecote was still standing, the founder's grave was in an arch of the wall on the north side, covered by a plain free stone curiously embossed with the sculpture of a large cross.

CACHE DESCRIPTION
Some may consider that this cache is not worthy of a bonus status but we have had several replacements and hope this one will last longer.

Please re-hide well.

This cache is a small camouflaged screw top container, big enough for a log book and pencil.

FINAL CO-ORDINATES
All of the answers to the clues you have collected should enable you to resolve the final equation which will give you the final cache co-ordinates.
