Geocache Description:

“THE CHICKEN RUN”

CACHE NO. 7 – THE PRIZE EGG

Co-Ordinates should have been collected from other 6 caches in this series.


Formula is as follows:

NORTHING: = A B . C

WESTING: = D E . F

This cache is part of the “Chicken Run” series of 7 caches placed around the small rural village of Fauls Green in North Shropshire. If caches are completed in order, all can be accomplished in 1 day with a lovely 2.25 mile circular walk through local countryside offering fantastic views of neighbouring Hawkstone. Can you be the first to find them all & find the Prize Egg?

Fauls Green (or Faulsgreen) is a small village situated 4 miles away from Prees in rural Shropshire. The village name is commonly abbreviated as 'Fauls'. The Fauls Holy Emmanuel church (1856) is located within the village where parking is available for approx 3 cars, Parking co-ordinates are as follows:

PARKING CO-ORDINATES - N52 53.421 - W002 36.673

Hidden within Caches 1 thru 6 are the North & West co-ordinates for this the final bonus cache “THE PRIZE EGG”

This is the one, final cache that is the climax to the Chicken Run series of caches!
Of course, the above co-ordinates ARE NOT CORRECT and just give the general parking area!

To find this cache you must first find North & West co-ordinates hidden in other chicken run caches

ONCE YOU HAVE FOUND MY WATER…. LOOK DIRECTLY OPPOSITE

Remember to be discreet and to hide the cache well after you have found it!

If successful, you can now return by heading left down the lane into Fauls back to your nest!

Congratulations on completing the series!

P.S. Feel free to post pictures and a detailed log but try and avoid spoilers. Thanks!
