How to calculate the coordinates of the physical cache
Look for the brass sign commemorating the official opening of Thirsk Tourist Information Centre.
The physical cache is at N 54° 13.ABC W 001° 20.DEF where:
A = the number of letters in the last word on the penultimate line of the sign
B = the number of letters in the month that Thirsk Tourist Information Centre was officially opened
C = the number of letters in first word of the last line of the sign
D = the number of letters in the first name of the first person who officially opened Thirsk Tourist Information Centre
E = the number of letters in the first name of the author otherwise known as James Herriot
F = the number of letters in the second name of the second person who officially opened Thirsk Tourist Information Centre
Checksum (A+B+C+D+E+F) = 31
