KHWC #4 - Spitfire Multi-Cache

This cache has been archived.

Muddy_Puddles: After 4 years it's time for this series to go to make way for something new.

All the caches have now been collected in. A huge thanks to all who have found them and enjoyed them.

This one was never found as much as the rest simply because it was a multi, which is a shame as it involved a special piece of history and local information.

Geocache Description:

The Kilburn – Horsley Woodhouse Circuit (KHWC) is a circular walk of around 4.75 miles, mixing an assortment of caches including nano, micro, small, regular, multi and even a letterbox hybrid cache.

There are 21 caches in total, including the bonus for which you will need to collect clues from each of the other caches to be able to work out the final coordinates. Please be aware that some of this circuit can be VERY muddy.


This is a fairly straightforward multi. The cache is not located at the stated coordinates. The coordinates take you to a commemorative stone with a plaque which is listed on Waymarking.com, a Groundspeak site. A link to the Waymarking page is included for anyone wishing to record a waymark. The plaque is worth a read for a bit of local history.

To find the cache you will need the date that the plaque was placed (ABCD) and the number on the lamppost a few feet away (EFGHIJ)

The cache is located at: N 53 BJ.C(H-E)(A-F) W 001 (G-E)D.D(I+E)(H-D)
Checksum : The digits in your new coordinates should add up to 40
OR

You can check your answers for this puzzle on GeoChecker.com.


Don't forget to collect the clue on the top of the log for the bonus cache. Please bring your own pen/pencil.
