Our first multi will take you on a journey through the Heathcote Cemetery paying particular attention to three grave sites – highlighting the hardships and loss faced by many in their day. 
 
WP1 –  At the posted coordinates there is plenty of parking available and the nearby sign will provide the information required for WP2.
Using the last three digits of the telephone number on the sign calculate:
