Geocache Description:

The Aston Rowant Ramble is a series of 9 caches that goes from Nethercote Lane in Lewknor (near the end of the Lewknor Loop series), then goes along footpaths, under the M40, past the A40 and to a “crossroads” of paths. From here you can walk down to the beautiful village of Aston Rowant.

The first five caches are the important ones: they hold the parts of the puzzle needed to find the bonus. The bonus itself is right inside the village. Then there are three little extra caches that will lead you back to Lewknor, where you started.
There is plenty of parking space in Lewknor, so you can walk down to the first cache.
The Puzzle: Please read before setting off!

'Each of the first five caches contains in the log book a little puzzle piece with letters in it, maybe looking a bit like this:
 

 
 
 
You will need to make a note of this on a piece of paper – it is important that you have the placement of the letters!
Once you have the letters from all the caches, you will need to fit them together like a puzzle (cut them out if necessary). This will make two rows of numbers (written as words). i.e., it could be:

S       E       V       E       N      T       W     O      N      I        N      E
E       I        G       H       T       F       O      U       R       O      N      E

The co-ordinates of the Bonus cache are:

N051° 41. (top row of numbers)’
W000° 56. (bottom row of numbers)’

Good Luck!
Remember – caches 7, 8, 9 don’t have puzzle pieces – it’s only 1-5.
