Geocache Description:

Some of you may be aware that I did not intend to set any more caches, however I was persuaded out of cache setting retirement to help place the series in here as they are for a special occasion - the celebration of Original A1's 5000 & odd cache finds. 

 


STRONGLY ADVISE THAT IF YOU ARE DOING ALL THE KILMAGAD CACHES THEN YOU COMPLETE THEM CLOCKWISE. IF YOU DON'T DO IT CLOCKWISE THEN YOU WILL HAVE TO GO BACK UPHILL AGAIN TO GET THE FINAL FOR THIS

At the co-ordinates you will find a plaque on the back of the gate. This plaque marks part of the Michael Bruce Way - a circular walk which links Scotlandwell and Kinnesswood. Michael Bruce was a poet, born in Kinnesswood on 27 March 1746, and who died at the young age of 21 on 5th July 1767. On the plaque is a verse from one of his poems. Use this to answer the questions below (a = 1, b = 2, c = 3 etc) and work out where the final cache is. 

Cache can be found at N56 12.ABC  W003 1D.EFG
