Info about the area: Ref from Dorset Life Magazine "Holt Heath reserve and White Sheet plantation Holt Heath is the ‘finest remaining example of heathland and bog in East Dorset,’ while White Sheet Plantation has become ‘an interesting transitional habitat of heathland, gorse, birch scrub and young forestry’ after being mostly destroyed by fire in 1979. The extensive bogs are a noted feeding area in summer for dragonfly-hawking hobbies and a hotspot in winter for hunting hen harrier and merlin. European nightjars nest on Holt Heath and in White Sheet Plantation".

Cache detail: For a short'ish walk to the final location we suggest initally taking the path between the Plantaion fence and the field paddocks.Suitable for buggys to within a few feet of cache.
If you are lucky you may see Ponies or Highland Cattle grazing within White Sheet Plantation

Use the small request sign attached to the wooden bar of the one bar gate to calculate the final co-ords.
Number of Letters in the penultimate word = A
Number of letters in the first word = B
Number of consonants in 2nd word + 2 = C
Number of Capital Letters used on this sign X 3 = D

Final co-ords=N 50 49 AB9 W 001 55 CD1

The sum of all the digits of the final co-ords is 30 more than the total number of letters of all of the words on the sign . (Changed from 31 to 30 on 26/02/12)

Note:- 14 April 2019 hint changed due to original host item rotting away in past 7 years .

C.O.note of June 20 The area around GZ was not wet when we placed the cache we guess it is a result of the tree felling
