Geocache Description:

This cache was inspired by one of my favourite authors. The first question you need to solve is which one?

The co-ordinates take you to the medieval market cross in Bywell. If you look for Bywell - a tale of two churches (GC10QF6) you will learn a lot about this peaceful place. I am only using itas the name is a (small) clue. The title is a bigger one but don't let yourself be misled by a popular search engine! It will also help to think of geocaching as a modern day version of treasure hunting in 1904.

To find the location of the cache you need to solve this little puzzle. It helps to have an Antiquary handy.

There is no room in the cache for a pencil or trades. Please do not remove the guardian! Please also try to replace as found - if you're not trembling too much!
