Geocache Description:

A short multi cache set around the beautiful Great Malvern Priory that dates back to the 11th century. There is so much history surrounding this priory, so much that we have to refer you to the priorys web site for further reading. www.greatmalvernpriory.org.uk

If you are able to, take a look inside this great building, enjoy your visit and happy caching :-) 

 


Start at the given coordinates at the entrance to the top of the church yard following down past the Priory and round to the right behind the east end of the building. There are six pieces of information for you to collect before you can calculate the final coordinates. The final is outside the priory grounds but not to far away. Please use stealth as GZ can be a high muggle area at times.

1, At the start coordinates look for the date on the left hand pillar, note down the first digit of the number of years the Priory has been welcoming all, this = A.

2, Taking the path towards the Priory look for Margaret and John Bellers. What age was Margaret when she died? Sum of the digits = B

3, Now go down the steps towards the main entrance, how many glass windows above the arched doorway? = C

4, From the entrance walk down the drive to the second free standing lamp on the left, there are a number of grave stones. In amongst them you are looking for Anne Elizabeth Darwin (Charles Darwins eldest daughter). How old would she have been when she died? = D

5, Return to the driveway and walk around the East end of the Priory and you will find a wooden door with ornate hinges. How many key hole are there? =E

6, To the left of the door are a row of stone bases where wooden crosses of WW1 soldiers stood for many years. From what year did they stand? Sum of the digits = F

To calculate the final follow the fomular below:

N52 ((C+D)-F) (C+2).(F-A) B (D-C)

W002 (F+5).(E×2) A (D-E)

You must sign the log to claim this cache.
