Geocache Description:

This is a short multicache which should take about an hour and has some lovely views throughout. The cache position was changed, due to vandalism on September 4th 2002.

This multicache takes you on a almost circular walk. The terrain is fairly easy going but the forest can get very muddy and has some free roaming cattle which can look intimidating but aren't. The answers to the various clues are all prime numbers contained in the following list (which also contains some fillers!):
2, 3, 5, 7, 11, 13, 17, 19, 23, 29, 31, 37, 41

The location of the cache is N 51 0A.BCD / E 000 0E.FGH
Answers to the following clues will give you A,B,C,D,E,F,G and H.

Park your car here: N 51 02.308 / E 000 05.040

1. N 51 02.293 / E 000 04.968
Stop here and look to the SW. Apart from the lovely view you will see a living prime not far away. The answer is E.

2. N 51 02.341 / E 000 04.583
There is a lovely view here. But closer to you, and to the ESE is another living prime. Theres nothing odd here so if in doubt check the list of numbers. The answer is G.

3. N 51 02.369 / E 000 04.495
Time for a rest? While you do, remember for a moment Janet Tutton. In what year was she born? Add the digits to get another prime. The first digit is A, the second is B.

4. N 51 02.411 / E 000 04.492
You cannot have a picnic bonfire on the forest between two dates, one of them sometime in December. Exactly when in December is a prime. The first digit is H, the second is F. If in doubt check the list.

5. N 51 02.493 / E 000 04.534
Look carefully here. Theres a Prime Time prime close by. Some actors are very wooden, don't you think? It is lumped together with a smaller one underneath. The smaller prime, which you've already seen is D.

6. N 51 02.415 / E 000 04.840
This place has been used for the scenery for car advertisments - the view is superb. Its time for another rest. Mrs Munn used to be a Treasurer and left her post in 1985. How many vowels are in her first name? This gives you C.
